The President of the Nigerian Senate, Godswill Akpabio, has alleged that certain enemies of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu are responsible for financing the country’s deteriorating security situation, with the aim of undermining the success of Nigeria’s democracy.
Akpabio made the remarks in Abuja during the launch of three books honouring former military Head of State, Abdulsalami Abubakar, as part of celebrations marking his 84th birthday. One of the books is a biography of the former leader.
The Senate President praised Abdulsalami for his role in transitioning power to a civilian administration in 1999, a move that laid the foundation for the democracy Nigeria continues to enjoy to this day.
