Socio-political activist Aisha Yesufu has downplayed claims that the North is plotting against President Bola Tinubu.
On Wednesday, Yesufu asserted that Northerners provided crucial support to Tinubu during the 2023 election, particularly endorsing the Muslim-Muslim ticket.
In a post on her official X handle, Yesufu remarked, “The North carried Tinubu on their head with the Muslim-Muslim ticket and even Mallams from the North said some of us are not Muslims for not supporting Tinubu.
“One even said it is Islam that would have fallen not Tinubu if Tinubu doesn’t win.
“That is the same North you are saying is plotting against Tinubu because he is a Southern President. I laugh in Etsako.
“The North gave that Southern President the critical number of votes to rig election only to now come and start the hard work of regime change against the so called Southern President when they could have easily denied this Southern President the vote to rig election.”
This statement comes amid accusations following the EndBadGovernanceInNigeria protest that the North is seeking a change of government.
Some protesters had even called for a military takeover, a notion the Nigerian Military has publicly rejected.
