Governor Bala Abdulkadir Mohammed of Bauchi State has issued a stern warning to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, stating that he is not intimidated by the Federal Government.

This bold declaration comes amidst the controversy surrounding the Tax Reform Bill.

Mohammed’s statement, “I swear to Almighty Allah, we are not afraid of President Tinubu, the Federal Government,” underscores his determination to stand firm against any opposition from the federal authorities.

It’s worth noting that Governor Mohammed has been critical of President Tinubu’s policies, particularly those that he believes are detrimental to the welfare of the masses.

In a recent statement, Mohammed expressed his disappointment with the President’s nationwide broadcast, which he felt did not accurately reflect the reality on the ground.

The Governor’s warning to President Tinubu is a clear indication that he will not back down from his stance, even in the face of potential opposition from the Federal Government.
