President (Tinubu) is a Nigerian. He deserves the same two terms that Buhari had. Let’s not sacrifice the country for personal ambition.” – Bayo Onanuga
Bayo Onanuga, the Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, has claimed that certain individuals have targeted President Bola Tinubu due to his Southern origin.
During an interview with Trust Radio, Onanuga refuted the allegation of marginalization, labeling it as falsehoods driven by political agendas.
Onanuga stated that it is not accurate to claim that the North has been disadvantaged or overlooked in terms of appointments or developmental projects.
He said, “This President is a Nigerian. He deserves the same two terms that Buhari had. Let’s not sacrifice the country for personal ambition.
“You need to get your statistics right. It’s all political mischief designed to undermine the President. There are bad roads across the country, not just in the North.
“The National Security Adviser, Chief of Defence Staff, and the two Defence Ministers are all Northerners. Places like Birnin Gwari and Igabi (in Kaduna) are now safer. I drove from Kaduna to Abuja without incident, a journey that was once unthinkable.”
