Hardship: We Would Soon Revolt, We Can No Longer Pacify Our People – Sultan To Tinubu
Sultan of Sokoto, Muhammad Sa’ad Abubakar-led Northern Traditional Council, has warned President Tinubu of an impending revolt from Northerners.
According to the Sultan, the rising poverty, hunger and insecurity in the country are the major driving forces behind this revolt.
“It is getting to a level that traditional leaders could no longer pacify the people from revolting against government and political leaders that are supposed to find solutions to their lingering socio-economic plight,” Mr Sa’ad said.

“We have reached that level, people are very agitated, people are hungry, they are angry, but they still believe there are people who can talk to them, they believe in some of their Governors, some other traditional rulers and some of their religious leaders, fortunately some of us double as traditional and religious leaders.”
