Mohammed Accuses Tinubu Administration of Regional Bias.

Controversial northern politician Hajiya Nàja’atu Mohammed has publicly accused President Bola Tinubu’s administration of prioritizing the development of the South-West region at the expense of national unity. Speaking on the Political Advantage Platform (PAP) podcast, Mohammed alleged that the government’s policies disproportionately favor the Yoruba ethnic group, asserting that the administration is “about Yorubas for Yorubas and by Yorubas.”

While claiming no personal animosity towards the President, Mohammed criticized Tinubu for allegedly focusing on regional development using national resources. She further attributed the current economic hardship to the government’s perceived disregard for the concerns of ordinary Nigerians, coupled with its reliance on external bodies for guidance.

Mohammed, a former member of Tinubu’s presidential campaign team, expressed disappointment with the administration’s performance, particularly in addressing insecurity and fulfilling the initial expectations surrounding Tinubu’s perceived experience as Governor of Lagos. Her statements raise significant questions regarding the perceived regional balance and national unity under the current administration.
