The Northern Awareness Network (NAN) has revealed a purported plot by disgruntled politicians to dismantle President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s support base.
According to NAN chairman, Salihu Sulaiman, the plan involves targeting nine high-performing ministers and cabinet officials who are believed to be instrumental in securing victory for President Tinubu in future elections.
The NAN claims to have uncovered a scheme that aims to weaken the bond between these officials and President Tinubu, thereby diminishing his chances of a second term return in 2023.
The targeted officials include, Nyesom Wike, Hon Olubunmi Tunji Ojo, Abubakar Bagudu, Bello Matawalle, Hannatu Musawa, Femi Gbajamiala, Yusuf Bicci and Festus Keyamo.
These individuals have been singled out for attacks and disrespectful treatment in an apparent attempt to undermine their influence and effectiveness in supporting President Tinubu’s reelection bid.
“The plan to target high-performing ministers and cabinet officials who have been instrumental in securing victory for President Tinubu in future elections is a deeply troubling revelation,” said Sulaiman.
The achievements of these officials in their respective ministries have been cited as potential threats to the opposition’s efforts to undermine President Tinubu’s reelection prospects.
Nyesom Wike, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), has implemented various infrastructure projects to improve the living conditions of residents in the territory. Hon Olubunmi Tunji Ojo, the Minister of Interior, has been instrumental in strengthening the country’s security and law enforcement agencies. Abubakar Bagudu, the Minister of Budget, has successfully managed and allocated resources for various developmental projects.

The NAN says this plot underscores the need to uphold the principles of democracy, accountability, and the rule of law. President Tinubu and his administration should remain vigilant to the machinations of these unscrupulous power-hungry politicians and continue to work collaboratively with these high-performing officials.
“President Tinubu must remain vigilant and discerning, avoiding any traps that could jeopardize the success of his administration. It is imperative that he continues to foster strong relationships with these key players, who serve as the supportive pillars of his government. By standing firm against attempts to sow discord and division, President Tinubu can ensure the continuity of his administration’s success and the realization of his vision for a prosperous and secure Nigeria,” the NAN said.
