Datti Baba-Ahmed: Desperate 2015 Power Grab Created Today’s Security Nightmare

 

The 2023 Labour Party Vice-Presidential candidate, Datti Baba-Ahmed, has said that the desperation to remove former President Goodluck Jonathan in 2015 led to the insecurity ravaging Nigeria today.

Datti Baba-Ahmed made this statement on Tuesday, when he featured on Politics Today, a programme on Channels Television.

“I contested with the late former president Muhammadu Buhari in 2011. But ever since he made a security threat comment, I refused to go out with him.

“It didn’t matter if I lost the Senate seat, but I won it eventually. Buhari said, you [will all be] soaked in blood. Kaduna is my state. There was serious violence in Kaduna. Many houses were burnt.

“They went and brought people from neighbouring countries in readiness to remove Jonathan,” he stated.
