Ex-Minister Maina Waziri, Describes Tinubu As Unmitigated Disaster, Worse Than Buhari

Former Minister of Police Affairs and 

chieftain of the African Democratic Congress, ADC, Alhaji Adamu Maina Waziri, has described President Bola Tinubu's administration as an unmitigated disaster. Waziri said that Tinubu's administration is worse than late President Muhammadu Buhari's regime that was adjudged the worst government in the history of the country in the area of underperformance. 

Speaking in an interview on Trust Television, Waziri expressed grave concerns over the poor state of governance in Nigeria, noting that the country further sliding dangerously into deeper crises under Tinubu’s leadership.

His words, “If the Buhari government was a failure, the Tinubu government in the last two years is a disastrous catastrophe.

 “It has failed in all ramifications, and the country has regressed.

“The economy is collapsing, ethnocentrism is at an all-time high, and insecurity continues to ravage many states.

“I am surprised that people whose local governments are under the control of bandits can appear on national television to endorse this government."

He further cited growing insecurity, worsening economic hardship, and increased corruption as hallmarks of the current administration’s failure.

According to Waziri, under Tinubu’s leadership, Nigeria has not only lost its sense of national direction but has also become more fragile and polarized, even as the president was causing national decline in every sector cannot credibly seek reelection.

Waziri also emphasised that those endorsing the government were often, those that come from areas directly affected by banditry and violence, making their support puzzling and disingenuous.

He, then called for a sober assessment of the administration’s performance, urging Nigerians to look beyond media propaganda and staged- managed endorsements.
