Rights activist and stalwart of the Labour Party, Aisha Yesufu, on Saturday accused President Bola Tinubu of rigging himself into power to kill Nigerians.

Yesufu said Nigerians, who experienced poverty during the administration of former President Muhammadu Buhari, are witnessing another level of hardship now.

Posting on X, the activist said those close to the president can’t feel the hardship Nigerians are currently experiencing.

According to Yesufu: “The people that were in multi-dimensional poverty during Buhari, can you imagine what state they are in now? Tinubu rigged his way in to destroy Nigeria.

“The Muslim-Muslim ticket and the Emilokan group will not feel it. Anytime they buy, they will just say, “at least they’re rigged in,” nothing else matters.”

Nigerians at different fora have been lamenting over the current hardships being experienced in the country.

President Tinubu has been accused of failure due to the inability of his economic policies to ameliorate hardship in the country.

A court in Akwa Ibom State has reportedly declared the arrest of a traditional worshipper, Mr. David Effiong known for performing as an Ekpo Masquerade unlawful, ruling that his detention violated his fundamental rights to freedom of religion and cultural expression.

According to the judgment, security operatives had arrested Effiong during an Ekpo masquerade outing, causing criticism from traditional worshippers who argued that Ekpo is a recognised aspect of indigenous faith practices in the state.

The court ordered Effiong’s immediate and unconditional release and directed the Akwa Ibom State Government to compensate him for damages arising from the violation of his human rights.
