A former aide to ex-Vice President Atiku Abubakar, Daniel Bwala has stated that some members in President Tinubu’s administration has been sharing information that the President is biased against the northern states.
In his statement, Daniel Bwala further clarified that the president is not biased against the northern states.
This statement was a response the comments concerning the arraignment of undernourished young protesters involved in the #EndBadGovernance protests.
Following the criticisms, President Tinubu has ordered the release of the protesters.
Bwala expressed deep concerns over how President Tinubu’s northern allies might influence public opinion.
“The president @officialABAT does not hate Northern Nigeria; neither does the North hate President Tinubu. It seems the northerners around the president are either creating the impression or fueling it,” Bwala posted on X (formerly Twitter).
He further advised President Tinubu to use “unconventional approaches” to solve the issue because the conventional access has been manipulated.
He highlighted the significance of implementing measures to help foster unity in the country.
