The powers that annulled his father’s election and prevented him from becoming Nigeria’s president, according to Jamiu Abiola, the late businessman and politician, are now pursuing President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
According to Vanguard, Nigerians have been protesting against poor administration and overall hardship by taking to the streets since August 1. The demonstrators are threatening to extend their demonstration past the 10 days that were originally scheduled if their demands are not met as it is already in its third day.

“A lot of Nigerians are looking at this president like every other president because a lot of them have experienced broken promises in the past. So as far as they are concerned, anything that seems difficult is another broken promise.
“The president we have now is a different kind of president because he believes in democracy, he believes in and loves the common man. He needs to be given time.
“Those protesting are emotional and have not sat down to think of the president’s achievements since he assumed office.
“Some people have still not gotten over the fact that they were not destined by God to win last year’s election.
‘There are some people who have sinister motives. The same people that worked against my dad and cancelled his election. Do you think they would want someone who was trying to support my dad to become president and succeed? It’s the same forces that we have now.” He said
He further attributed the hardship in the country to God, saying it was a test every Nigerian must pass.
“Sometimes for things to get better, it has to get tough. It’s a test and it’s from God. You see, God is testing people and it’s not just in Nigeria. There’s the hand of God in everything.” He explained
