Hakeem Baba Ahmed has explained why he stepped down from his position as Special Adviser on Political Matters to President Bola Tinubu. He said the main reason was that he didn’t have much to do in the role. He said he is not someone who enjoys sitting around without being active or useful.
Speaking in an interview with Arise TV, Baba Ahmed said he expected to be more involved in important matters where he could share his ideas and advice, but that didn’t happen. He said he wasn’t given the opportunity to contribute in the way he had hoped.
Baba Ahmed said that he didn’t feel comfortable receiving a salary while not being truly engaged in any meaningful work. He said it didn’t feel right to him to just sit and earn money without doing something useful.
In Baba Ahmed’s words: “There was not much to do, I was not used to sitting idle and there was a lot to be done. If I had been involved I would have offered my humble advise or opinion but I wasn’t. I couldn’t just be collecting salaries and just sit down and do nothing.
