The Senator representing Borno South Senatorial district, Mohammed Ali Ndume, has identified Fifth columnists as those working against the President Tinubu’s administration.
According to the fiery politician, fifth columnists are working hard to sabotage the administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
This is even as he stated that the persistent rise in the prices of fuel, food, essential goods and services is becoming unbearable to average Nigerian.
The Senator made the assertions in a statement in Abuja, on Friday. He said bad elements are trying hard to pitch the people against the administration of President Tinubu.
This, he said, they are doing by pushing for harsh reforms and bad policies. Instead of controlling inflation and exchange rate that are making life unbearable for Nigerians.
Ndume said those who are bent on making the President look bad will stop at nothing in inflicting pains on Nigerians. He said they would do this through the “so-called reforms until things get out of hand and the blame will be on President Tinubu.”
“Many families can barely meet up with daily demands in their houses. And this is as a result of the hyper-inflation caused by incessant increase in the prices of essential goods and services.
“I personally believe President Bola Ahmed Tinubu means well for Nigeria and Nigerians. I know this, because I know what he stands for. But some of his advisers who don’t mean well for the people of this country give him wrong advice.
“I’m appealing to him to resist these bad people who want to pitch the people against his administration. The hardship these people are inflicting on Nigerians is becoming unbearable. I’m currently in Borno, and I know what I’m talking about. People are really suffering, hungry, frustrated and angry.
“In Borno State here, many families can’t even feed anymore. The untold hardship of these frequent increases in the prices is unimaginable. Farmers cannot even move their farm products anymore because of the high cost of transportation.
“Those who can still do this add the cost of transportation to the prices of food items they sell. And that’s why many people can’t feed again. People can’t travel anymore. To travel by road from Abuja to Maiduguri, for instance, is a fortune. How many of our people can afford that?
“I know that President Tinubu means well for Nigerians. And therefore, he should not stay back and allow a few bad advisers to destroy this country. That’s why I’m begging him to do something before it is too late. It is not good to test the patience of Nigerians, and that’s exactly what these bad advisers are doing.
“As soon as the President returns to Nigeria, I urge him to look into these issues and address them urgently. The purchasing power of Nigerians is too poor. And they can’t afford the things that are being pushed on them every day by enemies of state.”
