A former Minister of Sports and Youth Development, Solomon Dalung, has said that President Tinubu’s Sallah message might be a subtle mockery of suffering Nigerians.
The president had in his message to Nigerians to mark the Eid-el-Kabir called on the citizens to make sacrifices.
This is even as Dalung questioned the sincerity of the President in calling on Nigerians to sacrifice, love and believe in the country.
In a post on his X handle on Monday, Dalung questioned the sincerity of the President in calling on Nigerians to sacrifice, love and believe in the country, adding that his body language betrayed him completely from the social reality.
He said: “I listened to @officialABAT calling on Nigerians again to sacrifice, love, and believe in the country. Could this be mockery of the suffering of the masses, or he genuinely believe in what he was saying? If President Tinubu is sincere about what he’s saying, then it’s confirmation that his government is under siege by the notorious cabal.
“The President’s body language betrayed him completely from the social reality. He is in his own world distinct from the hardships confronting Nigerians. From my analysis of the speech, Nigeria is on auto pilot dangerous navigating turbulence.
“Does President Tinubu know that Nigerians are suffering? Certainly not, his reckless economic policies, wasteful expenditures, plundering of resources, insensitivity to plights of citizens, boastful and egoistic squandering of goodwill, adoption of corruption and nepotism as state policies are the characteristics of this ignoble regime.
“Sacrifice should begin with @officialABAT and his jumbo size government, then Nigerians can take him serious, but for now it’s mere rhetorics and propaganda.”
