Former member of the Presidential Campaign Council (PCC), of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP), Buba Galadima, has, during an interview on NewsNight from 3:20, an Arise Television Programme.
Expressed surprise that the Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), Senator George Akume, will ask northerners to wait until 2031, before contesting for the seat of the President; as he maintained that he knew Akume in the past as someone, who worked for the interest of the North.
Buba Galadima had said, “Akume is one of the people I respect very very much, because as Governor of Benue State in 1999, he was one of the foremost northerners, that worked for the interest of the North. In fact, he was more northern, than even the Caliphate, because Akume spent most of his time defending the New Nigerian Development Corporation (NNDC), and the Bank of the North, to which at a point, only Benue had the commanding share in the Bank of the North.”
