Former Executive Secretary of the National Health Insurance Scheme, Professor Usman Yusuf, has criticized President Bola Tinubu for allegedly prioritizing the needs of the National Assembly over the needs of Nigerians.
In an interview with Arise Television, Yusuf accused Tinubu of giving N72 billion to the 36 states to feed their citizens while simultaneously giving N75 billion to members of the National Assembly to purchase cars.
Professor Usman Yusuf said, “you (Bola Tinubu) gave them (Governors) N72 billion to feed the 36 States. At the same breath, you gave members of the National Assembly N75 billion to buy cars.”
Yusuf argued that this allocation of funds demonstrated the government’s misplaced priorities, as there is widespread hunger and suffering in the country.
“That shows you their priorities. Their priorities is to make the national assembly more malleable than the nation. There is trouble in the land and there is hunger in the land. It is our right and responsibility to speak for those that cannot speak, so that the president can sit-up and for our leaders to sit-up. There is trouble ahead.”
He called on Tinubu and other leaders to focus on addressing the needs of the people and to take action to alleviate their suffering.
