A senior member of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Abayomi Nurain Mumuni, has urged Nigerians to broaden their demand for accountability by holding governors and other elected officials responsible, rather than focusing solely on President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

While acknowledging the importance of evaluating President Tinubu’s leadership and policy decisions, Mumuni emphasized that public scrutiny should also extend to officials at the state and local levels.

He made these remarks during his assessment of President Tinubu’s second year in office.

In a statement released on Friday, Mumuni encouraged citizens to actively question and engage not only the presidency but also their governors, senators, and other representatives.

According to the statement signed by his Media Aide, Rasheed Abubakar, Mumuni noted that state leaders and lawmakers play a significant role in crafting, executing, and overseeing policy.

He expressed concern that many Nigerians tend to blame the President for every national issue while overlooking the roles and responsibilities of governors, federal lawmakers, and other elected figures across the country.

“While it is crucial to hold our President accountable for his policies and decisions, I urge all Nigerians to also direct scrutiny towards the leaders who serve at the state and local levels. Governors and legislators play a pivotal role in shaping the well-being of our communities, and it is essential for us to thoroughly examine their performance and commitment to their constituents.

“Each level of government has its duties, mandates, and responsibilities, and it is incumbent upon us, the citizens, to demand equal accountability from all our elected officials.

“I encourage Nigerians to ask pertinent questions regarding governance in their respective states. What measures have been implemented by your governor to improve healthcare, education, and infrastructure?

“By holding our state leaders accountable, we can create a more comprehensive and constructive narrative about our nation’s governance. It is only through collective scrutiny of all levels of leadership that we can pave the way for genuine progress and development.”
