Najaatu Muhammad, a former senator representing Kano central, says the All Progressives Congress Presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu, lacks the physicality, mental strength and presence of mind to cope with the rigours and demands of the office of the presidency.
Speaking on Wednesday during a programme on African Independent Television (AIT), Najaatu Muhammad said the wife of Bola Tinubu will be in charge of Nigeria if the the former Lagos State governor is elected president.
The former senator had recently announced her resignation from the All Progressives Congress (APC).
“In this case, you know that those hangers-on are only pushing him knowing that he cannot do it and they will be the beneficiaries. He is just there like an idol,” Muhammad said.
“His wife will be doing the ruling. She will rule over the country and the other hangers, they even hate Asiwaju as far as I am concerned, because you cannot put somebody that is ill mentally into a position of leadership.
“What sort of people are we? This thing can come back and consume every one of us.”
While commenting on her exit from the APC, the former senator said it is silly to say her resignation from the party was a result of incompetence.
“I had to liberate myself from the shackles of the rope. That is why I took the positions that I took,” she said.
“It is so cheap and silly when they talk about how I was expelled for incompetence. At what point? And the party does not belong to Asiwaju. The party is headed by Abdullahi Adamu. He is the one to expel me from the party.”
