We brought this on ourselves. In 2015, we ousted a government under the pretense of Boko Haram. Where are we now? We had Muhammadu Buhari as President for eight years, yet key projects like the Abuja-Kaduna-Kano road remain incomplete.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Yusuf criticized past leadership in the region, noting the neglect of critical infrastructure and services. He pointed to the Lagos-Calabar highway project as evidence of government priorities elsewhere, contrasting it with uncompleted Northern projects.<\/p>\n<p>He added, \u201cOur children are out of school, and farmers cannot access their fields due to insecurity. Banditry, Boko Haram, and other issues are the result of our actions. We must accept responsibility.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Yusuf also addressed divisions caused by the Muslim-Muslim ticket that brought the current administration into power. He argued that this choice had deepened religious tensions in the North, saying, \u201cIndigenous Christians now blame Muslims for the region&#8217;s problems, creating serious acrimony.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He further lamented the lack of vocal representatives in the National Assembly from the North, contrasting the current silence with the activism of past leaders like Gudaji Kazaure.<\/p>\n<p>The former NHIA chief concluded by advocating for inclusive leadership focused on infrastructure and public welfare, criticizing the prioritization of financial interests over development. \u201cNo reasonable Northerner will support another Muslim-Muslim ticket,\u201d he affirmed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Prof. Usman Yusuf asserts no reasonable
