A socio-political group, the Nigeria Peoples Forum (NPF), has described the Muhammadu Buhari-led administration as an unknown government.

The group noted that the government in Aso Rock exists in air only as there is no evidence it is in charge of Nigeria.

This came following the worsening insecurity in the country necessitated by the nefarious attacks by the Boko Haram terrorist, bandits, killer herdsmen, kidnappers and unknown gunmen in the southeast zone which had continued to claim lives and properties of the citizens.
