They are then accusing citizens, who want to get together,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>The professor, who doubles as founder of the Centre for Values in Leadership, said Buhari\u2019s administration is insensitive to the demands of its citizens.<\/p>\n<p>Commenting on the call for the resignation of Isa Pantami, minister of communications and digital economy, over pro-Al-Qaeda views, Utomi said the federal government is \u201calmost offensively intolerant\u201d to what Nigerians think.<\/p>\n<p>Although Utomi said he has no personal judgment on the issue, he noted that the Buhari\u2019s administration has lost legitimacy and that the democratic order has failed.<\/p>\n<p>He added that Nigeria needs a government of national unity to restore confidence of the people.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLeaders should provide leadership; democracy needs to be sensitive to the people. The unfortunate situation with the current reality is that the political class, especially the executive, is totally insensitive to the Nigerian people, almost offensively intolerant of what Nigerians think,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn fact, if you wanted Pantami to go, the thing to tell the government is \u201cPantami should stay\u201d and they will do the exact opposite, because they have total disregard for the Nigerian people.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo, I have no judgment, personally, as to whether or not Pantami should go. The thing is the whole democratic order has failed us. What Nigeria needs is to restore a sense of belief in democracy by doing something really dramatic.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRight now, the legitimacy of this regime is gone. I believe that one of the ways we can move forward is to, immediately, put together a government of national unity, to see if we can bring some legitimacy back to government.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Professor of political economy, Pat Utomi has stated that &#8220;people in power&#8221; ordered a coup against Nigerians &#8216;by giving us a government we are not sure exists&#8217;.
