I celebrated Tinubu’s election victory but he has no plan – Bauchi governor

Governor Bala Mohammed of Bauchi State
The Bauchi State Governor, Bala Mohammed has said that as an opposition governor during the 2023 general elections, he jumped in jubilation over the victory of President Bola Tinubu, believing that is Uhuru but in the long run, “freedom and development are eluding us.”

Mohammed said that Tinubu came to power without a blueprint or a manifesto, adding that he is surrounded by people who are “misfits.”

He said this while responding to questions from journalists when he received the Founder and General Overseer of Omega Fire Ministry, Apostle Johnson Suleiman, who paid him a courtesy visit at the Government House, Bauchi on Wednesday, during his two days crusade in the State.

His words: “I respect President Tinubu so much. But someone must rise to the occasion and tell him the truth that he is surrounded by misfits and I can now understand from the Man of God, definitely, he (Tinubu) came into governance ill prepared, without an agenda and without a manifesto.

“We believe so much in him because of his pedigree and antecedents as a Lagos State Governor who was able to do the magic. I was jumping when he became the President even though from a different party.

“I thought the Uhuru had come, but I have seen freedom and development eluding us and I must advise as a statesman, as a responsible citizen, as a head of a sub-national, that you cannot stifle the aspiration of Nigerians by making all the citizens of Nigeria just customers in a bid to actualize your aspiration.”

Mohammed maintained that he has no personal grudge against the President whom he noted he has so much respect for, but was only against policies introduced by his istration which will have negative consequences on the people.

“First of all, I want to seize this opportunity to clarify in the presence of a Man of God, Apostle Johnson Suleiman, I don’t have any personal grudge against the President. I am one of those who respect the institution of leadership, especially that of the President.

“You know my antecedents in the Senate when I rose for the Doctrine of Necessity. It was to dignify that office of the Vice President, where my boss (Goodluck Jonathan) became the President.

“We should see Nigerians as citizens not as customers, we should not bring policies that will divide us, we should live and let live. We should respect our diversities. We should not practice impunity where people feel that they are shortchanged, we should practice inclusivity the way Prophet Suleiman is going around, a global icon, a universal preacher, a young person who has risen to the occasion going to all the nooks and crannies. He heard voices from doubting Thomases but he still came to Bauchi,” he said.

The Governor said: “That is why I want the President to believe me, I mean well. I’m just trying to say that, in your governance, you can do it better by accommodation, by inclusion, and by coming up with a strict vision where you want to take Nigerians to.

“It should not be a fire brigade approach where you will be running after policies and programmes that are alien to us, that are not understood and may be misconstrued.

“It is because they don’t have any clear-cut vision, they are always taking us to a road of perdition and destruction. And that is why when I talk, I talk about the tax, it is not because I don’t want reforms, but I want a reform that will have a positive impact on us. I don’t have anything against the President other than respect.”

God bless President Tinubu

The only reason why most Northern leaders including El Rufai dislikes this present government is because they know that they can’t Boss PBAT around like they did to Jonathan…

Why didn’t any of them complain when Buhari was President…. Buhari’s had no plans too but because the North was benefiting both from nepotism and unmerited contracts, they were all quiet….

Bunch of Tuface idiots

Tinubu doesn't have what it takes to govern this country

The Governor of Bauchi stated that while he celebrated Tinubu’s election victory, he believes there is no clear plan in place for governance. This reflects both initial optimism and concerns about the direction of leadership.

.


How do you expect a drug lord, a packaged fraud, a guinea pig student of GSS to have a plan? Nigeria has never had a president full of moral baggage like this olóribú másànfáni bí tí Tinúbu ojúyobó.

Such a stupid and irresponsible comment. So sad.

TINUBU ONLY WANTS TO BE THE PRESIDENT AND THE COMMANDER IN CHIEF OF THE ARMED FORCES OF THE FEDERAL REPUBLIC OF NIGERIA. He has achieved his life ambition. Unfortunately, he has taken the country years backward through his bad policies and poor governance. His ers are speaking out now. Yet he has employed thousands of cyber warriors to be attacking Mr Peter Obi. The true President.
So long as Mr Peter Obi is not there, then they are happy. It's now clear that they have murdered sleep by denying him of the seat. This is just the beginning.

Like buhari like tinubu. Both gat no plans but plenty of propaganda.

Tinubu has a better plan to restructure this country and give every region a better opportunity to thrive and function effectively.

I ed Peter Obi but seeing how Tinubu is going about with restructuring, I am ing him now.

Over time, building a regional government is going to bring about visionary governors and competition for development will set in.

It's one thing to know how maneuver and win elections and it's another thing to know how to govern. There is serious hunger in the land.

Since Bauchi state governor was exposed for trying to use FUBARA to oil his 2027 presidential ambitions in name of against WIKE, he has gone mad on TINUBU as if it was TINUBU that exposed him .

Bala don dey fear. Why the need to shalaye since you have said what you said. You threatened to show a Southern president your true colour. Something no southern gov dare do to Buhari. Northerners and arrogance of power.

You can't play any ethnic card and it will work for you , buhari was better,we elected Tinubu to make our lives even better but he is doing a poor job of it
The fact that the market doesn't ask for our tribe whenever we go there ,means when the time comes we won't want to know the ethnicity of the president but what would the market say under him
We would use every thing and everything to shoot down these ethnic rethorics at the right time, we are looking for a competent leader with emotional intelligence that can better our lives,not all these greedy con artist

Not to sound unpatriotic, but this man hasn't done shit since he was sworn in.

Oga gov, for the huge allocation you have received so far.

Tell us why your state is so poor and backward

So Tinubu has no plan but was able to remove subsidy and float naira with great success

Refinery killed by your party PDP to allow fuel importation are now working.

Foreign reserve is all time high and excess export over import

Lol

You've been friends for ages and you thought it's eating as usual .

What are your suggestions

Have you improved state

And you party went to court.
Can you hear a pdp chieftain, celebrating Apc election victory?

Politicians and lies

This tax reform seems to be paining some elites from the north. Most have not even read the bill but have a WRONG notion that the bill is anti north. The governor should go and sit down. Mr. President should be resolute with the tax reforms.

I see.

But why oppose the tax reforms if he has no plans? 🤷

Hmm. For this man to speak like this without fear or favour says a lot about the hidden agenda of the north towards 2027. I pray it doesn't work out. In as much as I don't agree entirely with the policies of mr presdo, the north did nothing when their brother was roasting the entire country

Not everybody is hungry like you.

Leave sm, and go and look for work.

Really? PDP governors really betrayed Atiku

Na una no wan make we PLAN for FUTURE, all this epistle cos of TAX REFORM, to continue to REAP WHERE UNS no SOW?

This one wants to grab the pdp presidential ticket for 2027. Meanwhile, a certain Atiku Abubakar, the permanent owner of the ticket is warming up somewhere in Abu Dhabi.
