The former governor of Kano expressed concern about Nigeria’s current state, attributing the country’s problems to poor leadership since 2007.
He believed that good governance, respect for the rule of law, transparency, and accountability can correct the country’s course and lead to economic development and prosperity.
Kwankwaso notes that poor governance has led to widespread anger, hunger, insecurity, and hopelessness among citizens, particularly the youth.
Kwankwaso mentions offences of Tinubu’s government
The 2023 presidential candidate listed several examples of avoidable crises in Tinubu’s government, including political interference, sabotage, and insecurity, and appealed to leaders to address these challenges.
According to Kwankwaso, six avoidable cases that happened under Tinubu’s presidency are:
“Interferences by the Federal Government into the affairs of the chieftaincy matters in Kano State, impeachment of the Deputy Governor of Edo State, political crises in Rivers State, sabotage of Aliko Dangote refinery, controversies surrounding SAMOA agreement, the conflict between Sen. Ali Ndume and the APC Leadership, widespread insecurity and other criminal acts are a few examples of avoidable and unnecessary crises.”
