President Muhammadu Buhari on Tuesday took a swipe at those criticising him on the insecurity situation in the country, saying that they were not patriotic.

Former President Olusegun Obasanjo had on Monday written an open letter to Mr Buhari accusing him of not doing enough to tackle the increasing rate of insecurity in the country among other challenges.

But receiving National Executives of Buhari Campaign Organisation, BCO, at Presidential Villa Abuja, the President said that those criticising the isolated cases of insecurity in the country were not patriotic Nigerians.
