Babagana Zulum, the governor of Borno State, has come under fire from a Nigerian political organization called “Tinubu Next Level” for orchestrating the disaster that met the APC North-East zonal convention over the weekend.
Alhaji Ango Zubair, the group’s president, signed a press release on Wednesday stating that the Zulum-led dissidents’ actions brought “rude embarrassment to President Bola Tinubu and APC members across the country.”
The statement went on to say that the zonal unit of the party essentially had the right to support a candidate for president.
“We express displeasure at the actions of Governor Babagana Zulum in insisting that the zonal endorsement accorded to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu be extended to Vice President Kashim Shettima.
“We find such a stance as being rude and orchestrated to embarrass the President and every member of the APC in Nigeria and abroad.
“What Governor Zulum has expressed by his action and his other supporters is that their loyalty is not to the President, but to Shettima. That is where we have a major disagreement with them.
“If the President so wishes, he could as well orchestrate an impeachment of Vice President Shettima. But President Tinubu, out of the magnanimity of his heart, has not travelled this route in kicking Shettima out”, the group stated.
ZINGTIE recalls Zulum spearheading a protest against Tinubu’s 2027 APC North-East endorsement without Shettima.
