A major political dispute has erupted in Nigeria after Rabiu Kwankwaso, former Kano State governor and 2023 NNPP presidential candidate, accused President Bola Tinubu's administration of marginalizing the North in resource allocation and infrastructure development. Kwankwaso claims that Tinubu is prioritizing the South, leading to increased poverty and insecurity in the North. The Presidency has strongly denied these allegations, listing 43 projects underway in Northern Nigeria and insisting that the region is not being sidelined. Prominent groups like Afenifere and government ministers have also dismissed Kwankwaso's claims as baseless and incendiary. The controversy highlights ongoing regional tensions and debates over equitable development in Nigeria.
