El-Rufais recent utterances and actions demonstrate his detachment from the realities and priorities of the Nigerian people, said Bilal Mohammed. Call for support of Tinubus economic reforms These reforms, though admittedly challenging in the short term, are necessary steps to reposition Nigeria for growth, development, and progress, the group noted. Those opposing these reforms are individuals who have benefitted from the flawed systems of past administrations. Their resistance reflects their fear of losing corrupt privileges. The North is a region built on principles of fairness, justice, and patriotism. We support reforms that uplift the nation, even if they require sacrifices, the group declared. The antics of self-serving leaders must not deter us. Let us stand together for the betterment of our nation.
