President Bola Tinubu is the most demonised Nigerian politician even though he has a good heart, says Vice-President Kashim Shettima. He reiterated his call on Nigerians to trust Mr Tinubu.

According to him, the president is not a corrupt politician.

“Tinubu is not in power to engage in primitive capital accumulation, nor is he in power to leave landmarks in the sands of time. I’m not playing politics. I’m speaking from the heart. I have seen the soul of Bola Tinubu, and he has a good soul. He is the most demonised politician in Nigeria.

“The first time I went to his house at Bourdillon, I was looking forward to seeing a mansion comparable to Buckingham Palace, with gardens and swimming pools. But there was nothing special about that house. My house in Maiduguri is better than the house in Bourdillon,” Mr Shettima explained.

The vice-president assured Nigerians that in the coming months, the country would witness a positive change in the economy and fortunes of the nation.

Mr Shettima said the realities inherited by the Tinubu administration demanded urgent action to ensure that education was not only accessible but also desirable for every Nigerian child.
