A well-known politician from the north has criticized President Bola Tinubu’s government, pointing to issues with unfair appointments and waning public confidence.
Tinubu’s appointments, according to the lawmaker, disproportionately favor some regions, making many Nigerians feel left out.

According to the source, Tinubu’s ethnic group and clique control important posts, such as Finance Minister, FIRS chief, CBN governor, Tax Reform committee chair, and Customs chief. The lawmaker also called Tinubu’s policies anti-social and questioned whether he was truly committed to Islamic principles.
“He makes appointments that are too uneven. The majority of Nigerians don’t appear to believe his tax reform bills because of this. The financial and economic spheres of government have never been dominated by one ethnic group in our recent history.
“His clique and ethnic group include the Finance Minister, the head of FIRS, the governor of the CBN, the chair of the Tax Reform committee, the head of Customs, and others. Additionally, two days earlier, the Federation’s acting accountant general was a member of a single clique of Yoruba.
Furthermore, his policies are all anti-social. How can anything that emerges from such a system be trusted? He intended to declare war on the Niger Republic in order to conduct war against us in the north, as most of us still remember. How can a Muslim like Tinubu be advocating for anti-Islamic policies? Under the condition of anonymity, the insider told Saturday Sun, “Well, let’s see how far he can go.”
