The Emir of Kano, Alhaji Aminu Ado Bayero, on Monday, told Nigeria’s First Lady Oluremi Tinubu to inform her husband, President Bola Tinubu about the unprecedented hardship in the country.
The emir who spoke through an interpreter during the visit of Mrs Tinubu to the state, also asked the president to urgently address the issue of insecurity across the six geo-political zones of Nigeria.
“I want to admit that you inherited this situation, but the horrific decline in the standard of living under your administration is alarming and deserves urgent attention,” he said.
“The issue of insecurity is another serious problem we are facing. I know your government inherited it, but something more serious should be done to take care of the threats.”
