2027: ‘They created the hunger’ — Tinubu slams opponents at Kaduna rally
President Bola Tinubu has blamed his political opponents for hunger and poverty in Nigeria, insisting that his administration is working to address the challenges.
Tinubu spoke on Saturday at the All Progressives Congress presidential campaign flag-off rally at Ranchers Bees Stadium, also known as Kaduna Township Stadium, in Kaduna State, ahead of the 2027 general elections.
“I have an argument. I hear my opponent talking about hunger, poverty. Who created it? They did! They created the hunger, they created the poverty. We are trying to eradicate it,” the president said.
He also defended his administration’s record on salary payments and commended state governors for their performance, saying they were making progress in their respective states.
“We pay salaries regularly. Our governors are working. I am proud of them. They are developing,” Tinubu said.
The president thanked Kaduna residents for supporting him in the previous presidential election, saying their votes contributed to his emergence as president.
“You gave me joy to remember the victory you gave me to become president. I come again to thank you,” he said.
Tinubu appealed to Nigerians to give him another term, saying he wanted to sustain his promises of prosperity, continuity, progress and development.
