Erebuoye James, President of Concerned Nigerian Network in Diaspora, has urged Nigerians, including those in the Diaspora, to be patient with President Muhammadu Buhari and wish him a quick recovery.

He made this known in a statement on Tuesday in Abuja.

James said the Buhari-led administration means well for Nigerians.

He was reacting to recent protests by some groups calling on Buhari to either return to the county or resign, having been abroad for medical reasons since May 7.

One of the groups, a coalition of Concerned Nigerians led by Deji Adeyanju, had announced sit-out protests that would hold simultaneously in Nigeria and London.

The London protest took place at the Abuja House, where Buhari had been receiving medication.

James said this is not the time to protest against a president that is poised to ensure that the country is developed, but a time to support him and pray for his speedy recovery.

He, therefore, pleaded with Nigerians in diaspora not to allow themselves to be used by corrupt politicians to stage any protest against the administration because the president was out of the country for medical attention.

James said that there is a need for Nigerians to join hands with the federal government to fight corruption.
