Bala Mohammed, Bauchi state governor has emphasised during his campaign that the federal government and the president are both deceiving Nigerians with their empty speech. He said they fail to understand that everything happening in the system started during their program.
He made this comment when he was addressing Nigerias during the #EndBadGoverance protest.
On Sunday, the president Bola Tinubu has spoken to protesters to come for negotiation and dialogue but he concluded that the fuel subsidy will not be removed
The governor responded to the president’s speech on Wednesday during the flag off of the PDP campaign for local government election in Bauchi state.
He said, “I listened to Mr President’s speech with rapt attention and with all humility and courage that what he said was empty,” he said.
“He did not agree with the situation, He did not address the problems and challenges. The problems are not his alone but for all of us leaders from the presidency to the sub-national down to the local government.
“We can see that the manifestations have different colourations. In the North, it is a very big wake-up call for us, to bring good governance and respect for people. There is anger and hunger, we have to address our problems of development
“The new policy thrust of the Federal Government is not working. They have to understand that and it is their problem and their program that has caused all these problems, so they have to change.
“I have heard and with regrettable attention that some of the ministers of the Federal Government saying that we have been given 70 trucks and five hundred and something million, how much did the Federal Government make, and what did they do with it?”
