A member of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Presidential Campaign Council for Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, Jesutega Onokpasa, has blamed the Northern appointees of the President over the unrest in the region during the #EndBadGovernace protest.
Naija News reports that Onokpasa, in a video shared online, lambasted the Northern appointees for failing to take any action in defending Tinubu’s government and ensuring sanity among participants of the nationwide protest.
According to the lawyer, many appointees of President Tinubu, especially those from the North, do not love him nor support his government.
Speaking further, Onakpasa exonerated the former Governor of Kogi State, Yahaya Bello, and his Kaduna State counterpart, Nasir El-rufai, over the purported reports that they were sponsoring anti-protest against Tinubu.
The APC chieftain said Bello and El-Rufai contributed immensely to the emergence of President Tinubu, maintaining that if the duo were not saddled with politically motivated issues, they would have risen to the violent demonstration in the North, restored calm and assured them Tinubu’s good intention.
He said, “Nobody is perfect. I have fundamental differences with them, but they are our brothers, they stood with us when it mattered most. Who is perfect? Am I? No one is, not even Asiwaju that is perfect. Only our Lord Jesus Christ is perfect, only God is perfect.
“Can you imagine, Russia We are bigger than Russia. We have more population than Russia. Carrying Russian flags on our own soil, calling for military coup? That Yahaya and Nasir are in Niger? Doing what? Where is the proof? There is something really wrong with us in this party. We are just falling apart.
“Now, so far, what I would say in the northern dimension of this so called nationwide protest, which is just an excuse for mayhem, if we had our members (Bello and El-Rufai) still with us, fully with us, free to do what every Nigerian citizen should do, if we had Yahaya Bello, if we had Nasir el-Rufai, these are people like me, they are not afraid of anything, they will speak their minds, they would have calmed down the North, they would have spoken up for Asiwaju.
“I want you all to forget all this nonsense, let us come back together. Yahaya Bello, Nasir El-Rufai are part of us, they are our brothers, they have nothing to do with nationwide protest.”
