….says Hausa-Fulani won’t dominate his administration
Former Vice President Abubakar Atiku has said that if given the mandate in 2027, the Yoruba ethnic group would occupy strategic positions in his government, stressing that Hausa-Fulani won’t dominate.
This was as he stated that he is lucky to have married a Yoruba woman, describing the race as one of the finest species among humanity.
Atiku was reacting to comments that his administration would be a Hausa-Fulani domination if he becomes President in 2027, describing Titi Atiku Abubakar, from Ijesa in Osun State, as a jewel of inestimable value.
In a statement by his Media Consultant, Kola Johnson, the former Vice-President said the interest of the Yoruba will always occupy a topmost place in his policy making and governance if he becomes President in 2027.
“It is for this reason that I count myself extremely lucky indeed to have had a wife from amongst this noble specie of the human race, which by this token implies that the bond uniting me together with the Yoruba is aptly like the genetic bond of a family, and this is why the Yoruba, whether individually or collectively, have always occupied a special place in my heart.
“It is also for this reason that the interest of the Yoruba will always occupy a topmost place in my policy making and governance if by the special Grace of Allah, I am lucky to be president in 2027.
“Therefore, the fear that my ascension to Presidency might lead to Hausa/Fulani domination over Yoruba or other ethnic groups does not only arise, but also is absolutely unfounded because the entire Yoruba stock are my larger extended family and In-laws,” he said.
