2027: Nigeria is sinking – Yunusa Tanko

Published on

By

The National Coordinator of Obidient Movement Worldwide, Yunusa Tanko, says Nigeria is sinking in all ramifications.

Tanko made this statement on Thursday in an interview on Arise Television monitored by GONG-NEWS.

He also said that the Obidient Movement and every Nigerian youth have confidence in the former Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, to take Nigeria to its glory if given the opportunity to pilot the affairs of Nigeria as president.

Tank added that Nigerian youths are not weak but strong, determined, and ready to take action, adding that they remain a vital force.

“We have confidence in Peter Obi who have shown resilience determination. The issue is about you drowning in a river or an ocean with a two edged sword. It’s either you grab it or you drown.

“So for anybody who may be thinking otherwise, it is the opportunity for him or her position, because Nigeria is actually sinking, and we are seeing it with our naked eyes. So you either go with the coalition and build a viral and united country, or we all suffer for it.

“So at this time, I think it is better for those who want to take that particular decision, to take it together, who His Excellency, Mr Peter OBI, is leveraging on seriously, are also a backup, and they are watching, and they are ready to take their action. So anybody can do anything, but he has the people to answer to.

“Remember, you are seeing what is happening in the country where members of the Federal House of Representatives, going back into their homes have been beaten to a point of stupor. Not to say that we are supporting violence, but it’s a political example of what you may expect if you decide to run against the will of the people,” he said.

2023 election: Only six Northern governors supported Tinubu, Shettima says

Vice President Kashim Shettima has said only six of the 19 northern governors supported President Bola Tinubu’s presidential ambition during the 2023 election.   Shettima made the disclosure at the palace of the Emir of Ilorin, Alhaji Ibrahim Sulu-Gambari, during the turbaning of Kwara State Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq as the Sardauna of Ilorin Emirate. According to the Vice President, the political tension surrounding the 2023 presidential campaign and election was intense, but Tinubu remained determined to pursue his ambition. “You all know that we have 19 states in the North; out of these, only six actually believed and supported Tinubu, but Tinubu refused to be deterred,” Shettima said. He added that several obstacles were placed in Tinubu’s way, including opposition linked to former President Muhammadu Buhari. Shettima recalled the slogan, “Baba bayan sushi,” which he said reflected opposition to Tinubu’s candidacy at the time. Despite the political resistance, the Vice President said Tinubu continued with his presidential bid and eventually secured victory in the 2023 election. Shettima also urged politicians to reconcile after political contests, saying politics should not be treated as a “game of death”. He said Tinubu had embraced and forgiven northern governors who did not support him during the 2023 election, describing this as a demonstration of leadership. The Vice President subsequently urged politicians in Kwara State to close ranks after the All Progressives Congress primaries and emulate what he described as Tinubu’s accommodating approach to political differences. Shettima also spoke about the economic challenges inherited by the Tinubu administration, stating that the Federal Government inherited $3.9 billion in the kitty. He said the administration’s economic team nevertheless continued with its efforts to turn the economy around. The Vice President had earlier inaugurated the state’s Revenue House on Ahmadu Bello Way and a garment factory in Ilorin.
