Tinubu Government Developing Southern Nigeria, Abandons The North - Kwankwaso

Tinubu’s so-called "projects" in the North are either repackaged old initiatives, slow-moving, or poorly executed while the Southwest gets real-time priority in budgets, appointments, and infrastructure.

Kwankwaso is just trying to pull the neck of obidient, we know where he stands

ASIWAJU till 2031

Why una dey use style beg na.

So una no even fit call their bluff.

When Buhari was accused of marginalizing the SE, did his advisers come to debunk anything? I don’t remember them coming to list projects in the SE.

You said Northern votes cannot make anyone president, yet you guys tremble whenever some powerful northerners tell their fellow people how Tinubu govt has made life hard for them and abandoned them.

Tinubu is actually neglecting all parts of the country or is it that the North accesses different market?

Okay unah go explain tire sha no evidence when the north says it's not enough it's not enough

I thought those online warriors said kwankwaso is for tinubu? Or na so tinubu dey work?

The truth is that no Southern president can please the north. They just want to grab power all the time.

Kwankwasiya for 2027 na man you be abeg na man you be

Anything to tear Tinubu down. A lot of times, this so called marginalization is usually down to appointments and not to development strides.

Politics is so full of hypocrisy and lies.

Sheuns:

This is what is called calling a bluff with facts and figures. Kwankwaso will now keep quiet. Tinubu no be like Obi who dey beg and submit proposal to Atiku for a one term presidency 🤣🤣🤣

Buhari was teaching the South East Python dance then. No time for nonsense. 😁😁😁

In that AKR road PROJECT (ABUJA KADUNA KANO) SIR YOU LIED.
Tinubu did not start that project.
Buhari did.

Why lie ?

Na wa oo

Fergie001. Should have read, "Presidency Replies Kwakwanso" Dare speaks for the presidency at at this occasion.

Just like "Atiku Replies Tinubu" even though, it was written by Paul Ibeh.

Lets be consistent.

Mynd44

Kwankwaso, over to you. What sayest thou next? Thus ask the government.

Na una sabiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

I dislike Kwankwaso's type of leadership. He is a sectional leader. That is why anything that happens to hausas in the south you will see him there. He likes to pitch the north against the south. Was he asleep when Buhari was sending all the resources and appointments to the north? I am not pro bulablu, but truth be told he is fair with appointments compared to Buhari.

Na una wahala. Una Sabi as una dey settle. My problem na una hungry supporters and data boys wey Neva see food chop. Dem full social media space and nairaland. We'll keep praying for them

Kwankwaso just wants to excite his followers. The stats show that bulk of Nigeria's monies go to the northerners.

You cannot eat your cake and have it... You cannot bring insurgency, insecurity, tribal and religion sentiment(bolo Haram etc) all in the name of bringing down a government. As you make your bed so you lie

Ok
Only God knows d Africa county dey will ship hulk Hogan clothes as okirika

Tinubu is neglecting the entire country, but Kwankwaso is only interested in the North. No business with whatever is happening down South

stop saying the South, say d South West instead of that

We should all be careful of the things we pray and ask for, because we may get them. Never thought someone would say this from that region. 🙂

$158.15m Agriculture Value Chain (VCN) Programme for nine Northern states.

Sunday Dare and food is this expensive. How many people cam access their farms, even Ogbomosho road is death trap

North is never neglected considering wider political coverage.Buhari left a legacy of divisive Nigeria and blatant display of tribal and religious discrimination.

Is it the same kwankwaso tinubu was begging and trying to convince to defect to APC

Government normally should be a continuum; project started by one should be continued by the successor

would you be saying this if Kwankwaso had decamped to APC yesterday? Oya, now tell us how irrelevant Kwankwaso has become. How is Tinubu fairer than Buhari when Buhari shared appointments across the North (Northwest, Northeast and North Central) but Tinubu is only focused on the Southwest and Yoruba speaking parts of the North Central? Are you one if those who suddenly remembers that the North is one when it concerns appointments?
