Aisha Yesufu, a former co-convener of the BringBackOurGirls (BBOG) movement, on Thursday offered a possible reason why President Bola Tinubu manipulated the electoral process to secure his position.
According to Yesufu, Tinubu’s aim in taking over the presidency was to benefit from the privileges that come with the role, rather than to effectively lead the nation.
Her remarks were in response to criticism from Peter Obi, the former presidential candidate of the Labour Party, regarding Tinubu’s upcoming dual-country trip.
Obi accused the president of planning to travel to Japan and Brazil while Nigeria bleeds and remains in a deplorable state.
He maintained that going ahead with such a journey shows a lack of empathy.
Obi had said: “How can anyone explain that a President who came from Brazil recently and met with the President is returning to the same country, leaving the various degrees of challenges at home unresolved?”
Reacting, Yesufu mocked Tinubu, whom she called “Agba baller.”
Posting on X, Yesufu wrote: “Mr Tinubu did not rig election to govern, he rigged election to enjoy the perks of office. Agba baller.”
Except for a change of plans, Tinubu will today depart Nigeria for Japan and Brazil.
