Matawalle: Ignore political propaganda, Tinubu has revived Northern projects

The Minister of State for Defence, Dr. Bello Matawalle, has urged Northern Nigerians to disregard what he described as politically motivated propaganda against President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

 

He stated that the President has revived several critical infrastructure projects long neglected in the region.

In a statement issued on Friday and signed by his Special Assistant on Political Affairs, Ibrahim Goga, Matawalle said President Tinubu’s administration has proven its commitment to the North through visible development efforts, particularly in road construction and security.

“President Tinubu has demonstrated an uncommon commitment to addressing the challenges facing our region,” the former Zamfara State Governor declared.

“Those attacking him with propaganda are only seeking relevance after failing to secure their political future.”

He listed key federal projects such as the Zaria-Gusau-Talata Mafara-Sokoto expressway and the Abuja-Kaduna-Kano highway as major infrastructure efforts that had been stalled for years but are now back on track under the Tinubu-led government.

“These projects were abandoned for years, but President Tinubu has revived them. Critics deliberately ignore these achievements because they do not serve their narrative,” he said.

Matawalle accused certain members of the northern political elite of sponsoring misinformation campaigns against the President in a bid to mask their own past failures and exclusion from the current government.

“These individuals had the opportunity to lead but left no meaningful legacy. Today, they parade themselves as defenders of the people, using falsehoods and crocodile tears to win sympathy,” he stated.

He also commended the administration’s ongoing efforts to tackle insecurity in the North, specifically highlighting the success of Operation Fansan Yamma.

“Our security forces, backed by the President’s proactive strategies, have recorded remarkable successes,” he noted.

“This Easter and Ramadan season were among the most peaceful in years for many northern communities.”

Calling for unity and support for the Tinubu administration, Matawalle urged Northerners to reject divisive rhetoric and focus on the region’s long-term growth.

“We must be part of the solution, not the problem. The North stands to gain more through unity and support for a working leadership,” he concluded.
