A chieftain of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP), Buba Galadima, has said Nigerians should not complain of the hardship in the land after shunning his advice and voting for President Bola Tinubu’s All Progressives Congress (APC) at last year’s general election.
In an interview with AIDOGHIE PAULINUS in Abuja, Galadima, noted: “Ah! Ah! I thought you people voted for him. If you are told don’t do this, it will burn your finger and you went and did it, who do you blame?”
The former National Secretary of the defunct Congress for Progressive Change (CPC), while speaking with Saturday Sun in Abuja, stated that having said he was going to build on what Buhari left behind, Tinubu should not blame Buhari since he has already taken responsibility for what Buhari has done.
The Gashua, Yobe State-born Galadima also said those accusing Tinubu of nepotism were wrong, insisting that the President was free to hire whoever he feels could assist him to deliver the dividends of democracy to the people.
Among other issues, Galadima explained why the North, including himself, will continue to oppose the establishment of state police in the country.
