“Within the last one year of being in office he has achieved a lot but mischievously those attacking him close their eyes against the achievements” he stated.
He then asked “ We they tell us ,they are not in the country,why do they they decided not to talk then,but now that the power has been shifted to the South,they were now mounted various unsubstantiated critics against president Tinubu,who had rally round Buhari in his right years of governance
According to him,”There were agreements in the past that led to the merger that founded the ruling APC as a strong political party in the country that began with the emergence of President Buhari.
He explained that the same agreement was what led to the emergence of Tinubu as president and he fulfilled his part of the agreement satisfactorily by making all the necessary agreements.
Kwankwaso disclosed that those behind the protests are the same people that slipped out of the earlier agreements and are now trying to follow channels to bring the president and his men down.
“Tinubu is working hard towards seeing the end of insecurity in the region and the results can be seen in the fact that people can now travel freely between Abuja and Kaduna without fear of being attacked as it was before” he added.
