Bauchi Governor Urges Tinubu to Reconsider Unpopular Economic Policies
The Governor of Bauchi State has called on President Bola Tinubu to revisit current economic policies, arguing that they lack widespread support among Nigerians.
Speaking during a Christmas Day event in Bauchi on December 26, the governor urged the presidency to prioritize the grievances of the masses over pride.
“We are calling on the presidency and the federal government to change their style. Whenever a policy is not popular, they should listen to the people and not assume that whatever they say must stand. This is not a military rule but a democracy,” he said.
He also emphasized the importance of unity across political divides to tackle Nigeria’s economic challenges. “There is a lot of hardship.
We must work together across party lines and government tiers to provide relief for Nigerians. Leadership is not about ego; it’s about listening and making necessary changes,” the governor added.
His comments come amid widespread criticism of President Tinubu’s economic policies, which many claim have worsened the struggles faced by Nigerians.
It was reported that former Nigerian president Goodluck Jonathan has allegedly purchased a presidential candidate form for the 2027 elections.
It can be noted that Jonathan served as Nigeria’s president from 2010 to 2015.
This information was revealed by Sani Useni, a special assistant who made the claim. Many reacted to the news, with some expressing interest in seeing Jonathan return to power after staying relatively quiet politically since his administration ended.
However, Jonathan has not yet addressed the public or officially shared any presidential ambition.
The Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) has reacted to the recent abduction incident in Oyo State.
It can be recalled that schools were attacked by armed men, with some teachers and students reportedly taken. Some people were also killed during the attack.
CAN cried out on behalf of the public, stating “It is intolerable, disgraceful and utterly unacceptable that Nigerian children can no longer sit safely in classrooms without the fear of being kidnapped by armed gangs.”
The organisation also stated that Nigerians are tired of constantly mourning and questioning when something will finally be done to stop the violence.
The Governor of Oyo State, Seyi Makinde, has revealed that seven teachers were abducted following a recent attack on a school in the state.
It was also shared that the number of students taken is still being investigated.
The governor further revealed that some people were killed during the attack and abduction.
He also added “With the pressure on the terrorists and the bandits in the North-West, they will keep moving southward.”
“When you have pressure in one place, we must be prepared on this side to either repel or neutralise any terrorists fleeing the pressure points.”
