Femi Fani-Kayode, former Aviation Minister, has tackled the Economic Community of West African States, ECOWAS for appointing President Muhammadu Buhari as the ‘Champion that will coordinate the COVID-19 response in West Africa.” 

Fani-Kayode described Buhari’s appointment as a mistake. Buhari’s appointment was disclosed by his spokesperson, Femi Adesina. 

Adesina had said Buhari’s appointment was made during a video conference on Thursday. Reacting to the appointment, the former minister warned that ECOWAS will regret the appointment given to Buhari because it was an error. 

In a tweet, the former minister stated that the President can barely manage himself, hence the possibility of managing a sub-region was in doubt.

 He wrote: “The greatest mistake that the ECOWAS leaders have made is to appoint @MBuhari as the leader of the fight against Covid-19.“This is a cataclysmic error which they will deeply regret.

He can barely manage himself and now you ask him to manage a sub-region of 400 million people?”
