The Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), George Akume, has warned Northern politicians against joining a group that will stagnate the various achievements of President Bola Tinubu.
Naija News reports that Akume made this known during his remarks at a two-day Interactive session on Government-citizens’ Engagement on Tuesday in Kaduna.
Akume said Tinubu’s government had spent two years and two months, and the achievements were fundamental and remarkable.
According to the SFG, Tinubu was on course to take Nigeria to the promised land, urging the Northern Region to wait until 2031 to contest the presidency.
He said, “Tinubu promised impartiality in governance and he has done that without breaking the promise. There is a need to encourage someone who is doing well, so that he can do more. There is a lot of misinformation in some aspects of the media.
“Tinubu has strengthened the security architecture in the country, revitalised agriculture with progressive initiatives.
“We have witnessed intervention that led to reduction in prices of food produce, improved food security and infrastructure across the country. I will urge politicians from the Northern Region to wait till 2031.
“Do not join a group that will stagnate the various developments achieved by President Tinubu. The president had positively touched all parts of the country and every citizen.
“The removal of fuel subsidies has now provided more funds to the government at the sub-national levels to carry out huge projects and deliver quality dividends of democracy.”
The SGF explained that the Renewed Hope Agenda was not a slogan but a determination to restore hope to all the regions of the country.
Akume emphasised that the narrative that the North is not being carried along in Tinubu’s administration is false, adding that the President has appointed many people from the region.
He state, “Tinubu has laid a foundation stone for New Nigeria through visionary leadership and commitment to bring dividends of democracy to all citizens and regions of the country without bias.
“Tinubu has appointed so many people from the Northern Region to work with him, and they are doing well.
“The narrative that the North is not carried along is not true.
“The Super High Way from Sokoto to Bagary is longer than that of Lagos-Calabar.
“However, the contract for a road, from Akwanga through Jos, Bauchi, Gombe, Taraba and other parts of the Northern Region will soon be awarded.”
