Sokoto to spend N500m on feeding citizens during Ramadan

Aminu Tambuwal, the Governor of Sokoto State on Friday, said that the reason South-East have security challenges is because the people of the zone were excluded from the reign of President Muhammadu Buhari.

The governor, who is also a presidential aspirant under the umbrella of the Peoples Democratic Party, said that if elected as the president, he would involve them into his administration.

He said, “Buhari has shortchanged the South-East. I was the one who advised Saraki to choose Ike Enweremadu to become his deputy in 2015. There is a complete case of exclusion of the people of South East. The head of the ten most important parastatals are not from South-East, including the CBN governor.

“None of the service chiefs is from the South-East. The president, the vice president, the Senate president, the deputy senate president, the speaker of the House of Representatives and his deputy is from the South-East. Under my watch that can’t happen. Every part of this country will be carried along.

“South-East and Imo State in particular can’t be excluded. The PDP will win back Imo when I become president. Igbo people are industrial. You will find a partner in me. We are working together with our brothers in Sokoto. We have restored normalcy now in Sokoto State. I will be a president for all Nigerians.”

A former Governor of Imo State, Emeka Ihedioha, said that Tambuwal was the right person to lead the country after Buhari.

Ihedioha said that Tambuwal had the capacity to fix the country and foster religious harmony between Christians and Muslims.
