Northeast Advocacy Group Tackles NEF Over Attack On Tinubu
http://www.newsportng.com.ng Group under the auspices of the North Eastern Youths Advocacy for Peace and Development has condemned the Northern elders forum for threatening to work against the re-election of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu in 2027.
Recalled that the Northern Elders Forum (NEF) in a statement had expressed disappointment over president Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s led administration and threatening that they will not give him their votes peradventure he decide to recontest for his second term bid in 2027 general elections.
The group, in a statement issued by its Convener, Salahudeen Shuaibu Planner, criticized the northern elders for their hostile behavior toward the Tinubu presidency, describing it as unfortunate and a calculated attempt to divert the president’s attention away from what he was elected to do.
The group noted that President Tinubu has worked tirelessly since taking office to rebuild the country’s economy, reduce insecurity, improve education, boost agriculture, and repair our battered image in the eyes of the international community.
Salahudeen stated that the president’s efforts should be commended rather than condemned, and he warned that the youths of the northeast will not tolerate any further insults and mudslinging directed at the president.
The group also urged northern leaders to offer useful suggestions that will help the country’s development rather than making incendiary remarks throughout the country, warning that it is not in anyone’s best interests to harm the reputation of the country’s president and, by extension, the nation.
The group threw its support behind Muhammad Bello Mattawalle, the nation’s defense minister, who characterized the Northern Elders Forum as a collection of political heavyweights with no real political significance in the north and consequently, throughout the nation.
