The Northern Youth Network on Peace on Friday criticized Dr. Salihu Lukman, former APC vice chairman, for his remarks regarding President Bola Tinubu’s administration.
During a briefing in Abuja, the group’s spokesman, Adaji Ajibili, accused Lukman of engaging in divisive politics and lacking the mandate to speak for the North.
He stated, “Things have reached a point where Nigerians should no longer take Lukman seriously. His assertions are not only baseless but also reflect a profound misunderstanding of the political landscape and the achievements of President Bola Tinubu’s administration.
“We urge Nigerians to recognize Lukman’s focus on personal ambitions over national interests, which highlights his inability to contribute anything meaningful to the national discourse. All he is doing is complaining about not being allocated a public office after the divisive role he played in the past.
“The Northern Youth Network on Peace appeals to President Tinubu not to give any relevance to Dr. Salihu Lukman’s remarks, as he speaks only for himself and in no way represents the sentiments and beliefs of the North.
“President Tinubu remains the contemporary leader capable of guiding Nigeria to greater heights, and we will not be distracted by the unfounded claims of dissatisfied individuals.”
