Northern Elders Urge Region To Back Southeast Presidency "Call Tinubu A Betrayer by 1nice(op): 1:20pm On Apr 17
In a stunning political shift, prominent Northern elders have called on the entire North to throw its weight behind a South East presidency in 2027, accusing President Bola Tinubu of betraying the region that helped deliver his victory.

At a fiery press briefing in Kaduna on Wednesday, the elders declared that Tinubu has abandoned the federal character principle and converted the government into what they called a “Yoruba government,” stacking key appointments, agencies, and economic control in the hands of his kinsmen while the North is left with scraps.

“We voted for competence, not clannishness,” the forum’s chairman thundered. “We voted for Nigeria, not for one ethnic group to eat alone. Tinubu has forgotten the ladder he used to climb.”

The elders cited lopsided appointments in finance, oil, customs, and the military, arguing that the North’s sacrifices during the 2023 elections have been repaid with exclusion and disrespect. “Federal character is dead under this administration,” one elder said. “What we have is federal favouritism.”

Their resolution was blunt: the North must not repeat its mistake. Instead of backing another cycle of betrayal, they urged governors, emirs, and voters to enter 2027 with one agenda — justice for the South East.

“The Igbo have been denied for too long. The North will not be used again to deny them. If Tinubu can forget the North after one year, he has already forgotten Nigeria,” the communiqué read.

The call marks the first coordinated move by Northern elders to endorse an Igbo presidency and rebuke a sitting president from the South. Analysts say it signals deep cracks in the 2023 alliance and sets the stage for a realignment where betrayal becomes the ballot issue.

Tinubu’s camp has yet to respond. But on the streets of Kano, Katsina, and Maiduguri, the message from the elders is already echoing: the North remembers who ate alone.

Tinubu has betrayed everybody that helped him to climb to power including EL rufai that stood firmly with him when buhari, the then APC national chairman Abdulahi and northern governors rejected him. Listen to the press conference he had yesterday and you will see a man who is hell bent on destroying this country . Tinubu threatened everybody and even promised more brutish policies that will imporish Nigerians the more if he wins the second term. Man is so callous and self absorbed.
