A Kano State chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP,
Jaffar Bello, has slammed Nigeria’s First Lady, Remi Tinubu for calling for US
air strikes on Northern Nigeria.
Speaking in an interview on Trust TV on Friday, Bello said
the President’s wife did not call for strikes in the Southeast, where according
to him, there is secession agitation.
He was speaking on the US listing of the new bill initiated
by the US Congress aimed at increasing accountability for human rights abuses
in Nigeria.
The Bill, Nigeria Religious Freedom and Accountability Act
of 2026, contains provision for potential sanctions against Fulani militias and
former Kano State Governor, Rabiu Kwankwaso.
Bello said, “Recently the wife of the President, the First
Lady of the Federal Republic of Nigeria was in America and she was calling for
more American strikes in the northern.
“She specifically stated the northern part of the country.
She didn’t call for strikes in the Southeastern part of the country that are
suffering from the IPOB and sit-at-home and issues of separation and killings
that are going on.
“Wherever America in the past 20 years has conducted war,
it’s in Islamic countries from Somalia to Yemen to Iraq to recently in Iran.”
