Senator Yusuf Datti Baba-Ahmed, a former federal legislator and former Labour Party vice-presidential candidate in the last election has stated that demonstrating respect for President Bola Tinubu will not prevent him from referring to the former Lagos State governor as a drug dealer.
Datti Baba-Ahmed spoke to Arise TV shortly after accompanying Peter Obi, the Labour Party’s presidential candidate in the previous election, to a world news conference in Abuja.
Many years ago, there were reports linking the president to drug-related activities, but the Supreme Court has refused to rule on such concerns.
“Showing Tinubu respect does not mean I will not call him a drug dealer,” he stated.
He asserted that Nigerians must reclaim their country while stressing that they have the right to do so.
“Remove the guns from the hands of Nigerians and redirect them against the enemies of Nigeria; Nigeria must reclaim the country!
“Sovereignty and power belong to the people! Democracy is the right of those who can practice it.”
