Tanko Yunusa Of The Obidient Movement Slams President Tinubu's Administration Over Poverty Crisis In Nigeria
"Tanko Yunusa Criticizes Tinubu's Administration: North Suffers Most From Poverty"
In a candid interview on Channels Television's 'Morning Brief' programme, Tanko Yunusa, an influential figure in the Obidient Movement, has taken aim at President Tinubu's administration for its handling of the crushing poverty situation in Nigeria—particularly in the North.
Yunusa expressed his dismay that the government hasn't lived up to its campaign promises of ensuring a decent life for every Nigerian and creating three million jobs annually. He rhetorically questioned whether the administration's ambitious claims have materialized.
"You know, the manifesto of a political party is a social contract in which you sign with the people. They said they have a decent life for every Nigerian. A decent life for every Nigerian at the moment? I cannot quantify that particular decent life at the moment."
Yunusa further lamented that the government was not doing enough to ease the hardships ordinary citizens face, and the northern regions are bearing the brunt of the crisis.
Despite this criticism, Yunusa acknowledged that assessing the job creation claims would require time and public scrutiny. "I don't know how Nigerians will manage to do Sallah. We are witnessing a high level of poverty rate. Interestingly, the northern part of this country is the worst hit."
As part of the Obidient Movement, Yunusa remains vocal in condemning the administration's handling of economic and social issues. The Obidient Movement has repeatedly criticized the rising poverty, hunger, and joblessness in the country, particularly in the North, and has decried the administration's economic policies for causing factory closures and worsening unemployment. They also pointed to increased nepotism and economic decline.
Speculation abounds regarding the future alignment of political figures like Peter Obi possibly becoming a running mate to another candidate, potentially reshaping the electoral landscape[2]. Critics argue that these ongoing issues will negatively impact President Tinubu's chances in the 2027 elections[2].
However, it's worth noting that the debate surrounding President Tinubu's administration and its policies mirrors broader concerns about governance and economic development in Nigeria[2]. Opponents like the Obidient Movement stress that new leadership is necessary to address deep-seated issues, while supporters maintain that improvements in security could bolster Tinubu's electoral prospects[2].
