Your govt is rudderless, lacks direction, Tambuwal bombs Tinubu

…Says PDP defectors driven by ‘stomach infrastructure’ not people’s interest

From Sola Ojo, Abuja

Former Governor of Sokoto State, Alhaji Aminu Tambuwal, has launched a scathing attack on the President Bola Tinubu-led federal government, describing it as rudderless and lacking direction to lead successfully.

He also accused members of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), who defected to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) of doing so because of “stomach infrastructure” and not in the interest of Nigerians.

Tambuwal, who spoke during an interview on the sideline of the PDP National Executive Council meeting, Northwest Zone in Kaduna yesterday, described the APC as a party that lacks focus, direction, and compassion and has driven Nigeria into economic hardship.

He questioned the integrity of politicians who defect to the APC, saying that they are not driven by a desire to serve the people but rather by hunger and lack of

His words: “People leave the party for different reasons. What I have been observing in the past is that defections are not in the interest of the people but based on stomach infrastructure.

“I said that because if we are talking of defection in the interest of the people, I believe you will not go to APC.  If you are a politician with conscience, with the current policies being driven by APC and current economic conundrum that APC has driven Nigeria into, hardship across the country and abysmal performance of Tinubu administration, there is nothing attractive outside stomach infrastructure.

“So, those who defected based on stomach infrastructure are not worrisome”, he said.

He emphasized the need for politicians who genuinely care about the country to come together and work towards a common goal of easing out the current

“It is for those of us who believe in this country. Who believe in service to people, to continue to come together and work out something that will help us to ease out this administration that lacks focus, that lacks direction and compassion and that is rudderless come 2027,” he added.

Earlier, the Chairman of the PDP Northern Zone, Senator Bello Hayatu, called on party members and supporters to take the lead in providing quality leadership in the country.

He emphasized the need to swiftly resolve conflicts at the national level and highlighted the party’s strong grassroots support despite the outcome of the 2023 election.
