Former Governor of Sokoto State, Aminu Tambuwal, has declared that former Vice President Atiku Abubakar would have made a better president than Bola Tinubu.
Naijaonpoint reports that the former Speaker of the House of Representatives, while featuring on Channels Television’s Politics Today on Friday, said Tinubu does not understand how the system works.
According to him, Tinubu has always been confined to the locality in Lagos and has never been a federal operator, unlike Atiku, who understands the dynamics of running the government.
Tambuwal lamented that since Tinubu assumed office, he has been unable to appoint ambassadors for Nigeria.
He said, “Atiku is better at getting the job done than Tinubu. Atiku is better in many ways, in understanding the dynamics of running the government.
“Tinubu has always been confined to locality in Lagos and has never been a federal operator, he does not understand the system.
“Look at it up till now we don’t have ambassadors, two years and almost three months into the administration, what does that tell you.”
Meanwhile, Tambuwal has accused President Bola Tinubu’s administration of orchestrating moves to destabilise opposition parties in Nigeria.
Tambuwal said he was ‘shocked’ at the way Tinubu is running the country but noted he could not claim to be disappointed since he never supported his candidacy.
“I’m shocked that under Tinubu’s watch, Nigeria is being run the way it’s run today and I can’t say that I’m disappointed because I campaigned against him,” Tambuwal said.
