Tinubu’s ally to Buhari: Why Nigerians may not forgive you

From Mustapha Adamu,

Kano

In what seems as a subtle response to President Muhammadu Buhari’s plea for forgiveness, Abdulmajid Danbilki Kwamanda, a strong campaigner of the President-elect, Bola Ahmed Tinubu has declared that majority of Nigerians will not forgive him.

Recall that Buhari while receiving guests who paid him Sallah homage, at the villa, asked Nigerians for forgiveness over his administration’s policies in the last eight years, saying: “Those that think that I have hurt them so much, please pardon me.”

However, speaking to journalists in Kano on Saturday Kwamanda insisted that Nigerians, majority of them would not forgive the outgoing president.

According to the outspoken estranged Buhari campaigner, the president had failed woefully in fulfilling his campaign promises.

Kwamanda alleged that Buhari had only served his family and cronies within the eight years of his administration, instead of serving Nigerians and those that worked tirelessly for his elections.

He pointed out that Buhari, within his two tenures, had introduced anti-masses policies that further worsen the condition of the common citizens.

He cited fuel scarcity, insecurity and cashless policy as major undoing of the president.

“Buhari’s government was full of nepotism. Buhari did not do anything to those that worked for his election since 2015.

“We suffered a lot for his success but we ended of getting nothing. Buhari had surrounded himself with his family and friends who did not work for his success.

“I am not afraid of anybody to say this. Only Buhari’s family and cronies that enjoyed his government.

“He introduced policies that out Nigerians into hardship. Fuel scarcity, insecurity cashless policies etc had subjected Nigerians into untold hardship”, Kwamanda stated.
