A prominent political critic in Kano, Abdulmajid Danbilki Commander, has accused President Bola Ahmed Tinubu of neglecting the North, claiming his policies have worsened economic hardship in the region.
In a viral TikTok video, Danbilki, who is a popular figure in the APC and staunch supporter of former president, Muhammadu Buhari, slammed Tinubu’s administration for its handling of the economy, particularly the soaring cost of living.
He pointed out that staple food prices have skyrocketed, noting that a bag of rice, which cost N26,000 under former President Muhammadu Buhari, now sells for N96,000.
Danbilki urged Tinubu to urgently tackle these economic challenges before the 2027 elections, warning that the worsening conditions could erode public trust.
He also criticized Northern politicians in Tinubu’s government, accusing them of prioritizing personal interests over regional development.
According to him, despite their significant presence in the administration, they have failed to advocate for policies that benefit the North.
Reminding them that power is temporary, he called on these officials to push for meaningful progress before their tenure ends.
