2015 push to unseat Jonathan fueled Nigeria’s current insecurity — Datti Baba-Ahmed
The 2023 Labour Party vice-presidential candidate, Datti Baba-Ahmed, has attributed Nigeria’s current insecurity to the desperate efforts to remove former President Goodluck Jonathan in 2015.
Baba-Ahmed made the remark while appearing in an interview on Tuesday.
“I contested with the late former president Muhammadu Buhari in 2011. But ever since he made a security threat comment, I refused to go out with him.
“It didn’t matter if I lost the Senate seat, but I won it eventually. Buhari said, you [will all be] soaked in blood. Kaduna is my state. There was serious violence in Kaduna. Many houses were burnt.
“They went and brought people from neighbouring countries in readiness to remove Jonathan.
“The desperation of people to get Jonathan out of power has built up and added to what we call insecurity in Nigeria today,” he stated.
