Former lawmaker, Senator Shehu Sani says President Bola
Tinubu is not the problem or solution to the challenges confronting the region
although he must be held to account.
Instead, Sani said northern leaders must take lessons from
the recent violent uprising in the region.
He suggested that the governors, religious, traditional
leaders and the intellectuals of the region must converge and urgently come out
with an implementable master plan to tackle the decades of endemic poverty and
underdevelopment facing the region.
Sani posted on X: “Northern leaders must take lessons from
the recent violent uprising in the region. The President must be held to
account, but he is not the Problem or the Solution to the Problem.The
Governors, political, Business, religious, traditional leaders and the intellectuals
of the region must converge and urgently come out with an implementable master
plan to tackle the decades of endemic poverty and destitution, Illiteracy,
Chronic underdevelopment, abject neglect, religious extremism and terrorism
that has demonised the region and impoverished its people.Guns and tanks can
suppress the flame but not extinguish the fire.The monster in our homes was not
created in a day.The North should look at the mirror and not the telescope.We
have the cattle to build our wealth, we shouldn’t be looking for a scapegoat.”
