Former Minister of Youth and Sports under former President Buhari, Regime Solomon Dalung, has said that worsening insecurity and economic hardship in the country could affect President Bola Tinubu’s chances of re-election if not urgently addressed.
Dalung made the remarks while speaking with Seun Okibaloye on the current state of the nation, saying many Nigerians are increasingly frustrated by rising insecurity, unemployment, and economic difficulties.
He argued that these challenges remain the major concerns of voters ahead of future elections.
“The main offence that Tinubu would have said to have committed in the eyes of voters would be insecurity,” he said.
He added that economic hardship and alleged mismanagement of the economy were also key issues affecting public perception of the government.
“Insecurity, untold hardship, mismanagement of the economy, corruption, unemployment,” he said.
Dalung further claimed that ordinary Nigerians are not the ones benefiting from the government’s reforms, saying instead that only those in government appear to be better off.
“The only people from 2023 to now that have been transformed are Tinubu and people in his government,” he said.https://urbanexpresslive.com/he-cant-stay-in-any-party-he-does-not-enjoy-total-control-buharis-ex-aide-hit-at-kwankwaso/
According to him, the situation reflects widespread frustration among citizens, who he said are struggling under current economic conditions.
He also expressed concern about rising tensions in parts of the Southwest, particularly in Ibadan, warning that the government should not ignore such developments.https://urbanexpresslive.com/benfica-vs-real-madrid-you-have-taken-wrong-direction-for-justifying-racial-abuse-seedorf-on-mourinho/
“Have you ever imagined what is happening in the Southwest? Where in Ibadan… you could hear women coming out shouting ‘ole, ole,’” he said.
“Those things happening in Ibadan, the government should not ignore it. Because it is going to take us through the same political path we have been on in our history,” he cautioned.
