Borno South Senator, Ali Ndume, says the problem with President Bola Tinubu is that he has people around him who cannot tell him when he is wrong.
Featuring in an interview on Trust TV on Friday, Ndume said he has only met the president two times since 2023 when he assumed office.
He also disclosed that virtually everyone around the president are dependent on him, hence, they cannot oppose him.
“The president knows me to some extent. I give it to him that he has so much to do. Since 2023, I have met the president only twice. I said it before that Tinubu’s problem is the people around him.
“I can tell you authoritatively that 95% of people around Tinubu are his dependents even before he became the president.
“He was taking care of them, and that is one of the problems of his government. When you have people around you that are your dependents, they cannot look you in the face and say, Mr President, this cannot work,” Ndume said.
