The Arewa Youth Consultative Forum (AYCF) has alleged that the recent protests orchestrated from Zamfara State are a confirmation of a sinister plot against President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s chances of reelection come 2027.
The AYCF, in a statement by its President General Yerima Shettima, has been vocal in its warnings about a brewing conspiracy by disgruntled politicians to undermine President Tinubu.
Shettima in the statement reiterated its call for President Tinubu and his team to remain vigilant and take concrete steps to counter the efforts of these disaffected politicians, while stressing the importance of solidifying Tinubu’s support base in the North, with figures like Bello Matawalle being crucial allies in such endeavor.
The AYCF thinks that the threats being made against politicians like Matawalle are merely distractions, with the real target being President Tinubu.
Shettima warned that these machinations should not be taken lightly and called on President Tinubu to be proactive in safeguarding his candidacy and ensuring a fair electoral process.
“The recent protests targeting Bello Matawalle are linked to destabilizing Tinubu’s support base in the North and are a clear indication of a concerted effort to undermine Tinubu’s candidacy and influence in the region”.
