Borno Forum Leader Claims Northern Elite Are Not Happy With President Tinubu’s Lopsided Appointments

Prof Khalifa Dikwa, the Dean of Borno Elders Forum, has said that most of the appointments by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu are either weak or lopsided.

Dikwa stated this while commenting on the 0.5 per cent cybersecurity levy on electronic transactions recently introduced by the Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN.

He accused the present administration of provoking Nigerians by introducing harsh policies.

He urged President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to withdraw the policy.

Professor Dikwa revealed that the Northern elite are not happy with President Tinubu because each of these policies affect the north entirely.

He also noted that there is an issue with his appointments because most of his appointees are either misfit or weak or taken to the wrong places.

HE SAID AND I QUOTE “Anything ICT, finance, works were lopsided. It must not be northern elites alone, even people from the South-South and the South-East should be appointed. Nigeria is more than Lagos State.” END QUOTE

The professor argued that the Tinubu administration was being remote-controlled by institutions such as International Monetary Fund (IMF) and World Bank.

He therefore urged the President to do the best he can to make Nigeria better rather than further impoverish the people
