Northern Leader Highlights Tinubu’s Alleged Missteps Against the North Ahead of 2027 Elections

A northern politician has raised serious concerns about President Bola Tinubu’s administration, accusing it of regional bias and eroding public trust. The critique, comes as Tinubu, a former two-term governor of Lagos State, is expected to seek re-election in 2027.

The politician claims Tinubu’s appointments heavily favor his ethnic group, particularly in critical financial and economic sectors, such as the positions of Finance Minister, FIRS Chairman, CBN Governor, Tax Reform Committee Chair, and Customs Boss. This pattern, the source argues, has led to a sense of exclusion among other regions, particularly in the North.

Additionally, the source criticized Tinubu’s policies as “anti-social” and suggested they lack sensitivity to Islamic values, citing his alleged readiness to “wage war” against the North under the guise of conflict with Niger Republic. The politician emphasized that these factors contribute to diminishing trust in Tinubu’s administration and its reforms.

These allegations are expected to fuel debates over the president’s governance style and political strategy as the 2027 elections approach.
