• The NYNP described Lukman’s comments as a desperate effort to distract from President Tinubu’s notable achievements
• The group urged Nigerians to ignore Lukman’s statements, viewing them as motivated by personal ambitions

The Northern Youth Network on Peace (NYNP) has dismissed Dr. Salihu Lukman’s recent criticisms of President Bola Tinubu’s administration as “absurd and not to be taken seriously.”

The group expressed concerns about Lukman’s mental well-being, describing his remarks as “confused” and “groundless,” particularly regarding the opposition's readiness for the 2027 elections.

This was contained in a statement signed by Comrade Adaji Adaji Ajibili.

Why Lukman is desperate, NYNP explains

The NYNP characterized Lukman’s comments as a desperate attempt to divert attention from President Tinubu’s notable achievements in various sectors, including economic reforms and infrastructure development, TheCable reported.

Ajibili commended President Tinubu’s leadership, noting his unwavering commitment to the Nigerian people, The Authority reported.

The statement said:

“We are baffled by what could have triggered Lukman’s recent outburst, and we question whether he is referring to the same President Tinubu, whose reforms have guided the nation toward proper governance.

"His claims are not only unfounded but also reveal a deep misunderstanding of the political landscape and the accomplishments of President Bola Tinubu’s administration.”

The Northern Youth Network on Peace encouraged Nigerians to disregard Lukman’s remarks, viewing them as driven by personal ambitions rather than the nation's best interests.

Ajibili appealed to President Tinubu to disregard Lukman's comments, emphasizing that he speaks only for himself and does not represent the sentiments and beliefs of the North.
