‘Tinubu A Bad Person’ – Aisha Yesufu Replies Ndume

Published

on

Activist and politician Aisha Yesufu has expressed strong criticism of President Bola Tinubu, calling him a bad person in light of the ongoing economic issues in Nigeria.

Yesufu’s comments come in response to recent remarks made by Senator Ali Ndume, who attributed the nation’s economic woes to the president’s close associates.

Senator Ndume, representing Borno South, had expressed his concerns that certain individuals surrounding Tinubu are responsible for implementing “harmful policies” that have exacerbated the economic situation rather than addressing pressing issues like inflation and stabilizing the exchange rate.

He highlighted the alarming rise in prices of fuel, food, and essential goods, urging the administration to take immediate action.

Yesufu echoed Ndume’s sentiments, emphasizing that the current state of the economy reflects poorly on the leadership at the helm.

The activist criticized Tinubu’s government for failing to alleviate the suffering of ordinary Nigerians, asserting that the president’s decisions and those he surrounds himself with are detrimental to the country’s welfare.

Ndume had said, “Those who are bent on making the President look bad will stop at nothing in inflicting pain on Nigerians through the so-called reforms until things get out of hand, and the blame will be on President Tinubu.

“I believe President Tinubu means well for Nigeria and Nigerians. I know this because I know what he stands for. But some of his advisers who don’t mean well to the people of this country give him wrong advice.”

Reacting in a post on X, Yesufu wrote, “Tinubu is the bad person. Call a spade a spade and not a garden implement.”

Bitcoin hits $90,000 for the first time as Trump backs crypto

Published

on

Bitcoin reached a record high above $90,000 on Wednesday, as the world’s largest cryptocurrency gained from President-elect Donald Trump’s pledge to ease regulation on digital assets.

Bitcoin surged to a peak of $91,000 before settling at $90,670.

The volatile asset has soared since Trump’s US presidential election victory last week, repeatedly setting new records.

Trump had pledged during his campaign to make the United States the “Bitcoin and cryptocurrency capital of the world.”

His previous term included corporate tax cuts that boosted market liquidity, encouraging cryptocurrency investment.

In September, Trump announced he and his sons, along with entrepreneurs, would launch a digital currency platform called World Liberty Financial. However, its sales launch earlier this month was lacklustre, with only a fraction of tokens sold.

Cryptocurrencies have drawn global attention, marked by extreme volatility and the collapse of major industry players, including the FTX exchange.

In the lead-up to the election, Trump reportedly became the first former president to use Bitcoin in a transaction, buying burgers at a New York restaurant that hailed it as a “historic transaction.”
