Former Speaker of the House of Representatives Aminu Masari says President Bola Tinubu has the best plan for Nigeria that he has seen in nearly four decades in politics. The remarks are reported as coming from a video posted on Facebook by the Hausa media platform HM Arewa.

According to the outlets, Masari also rejects criticism of Tinubu’s record, arguing that doubts about performance often arise during earlier administrations as well, citing examples including Olusegun Obasanjo and Goodluck Jonathan. Nigerian Eye adds that Masari speaks to a group of women at a public event in Kaduna and links the political discussion to efforts to limit divisive ethnic or religious rhetoric ahead of the 2027 election. The coverage notes Masari’s role connected to the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential campaign for 2027, and Nigerian Eye reports that INEC schedules the presidential election for January 16, 2027.
