Unlike Buhari?s, Tinubu?s govt is surrounded with a sophisticated and ambitious cabal – Solomon Dalung

Former Minister of Youth and Sports, Solomon Dalung, says the cabals around President Bola Tinubu are more ambitious than those that were around former President Muhammadu Buhari.

While speaking on Channels Television’s Politics Today on Tuesday, January 7, Dalung, who served under Buhari’s government, shared insights into the power dynamics he observed during his tenure. He likened Buhari’s situation to that of a “stranger” in his own government.

Dalung drew comparisons between the two administrations, stating that while the cabals around Buhari were less educated and primarily focused on narrow interests, those surrounding Tinubu were far more sophisticated and ambitious.

“Buhari’s government had a cabal, but President Bola Tinubu’s cabal is made up of sophisticated and ambitious people with a long history in power. They are experienced and educated,” he said

He warned that Tinubu might face greater challenges than Buhari due to the cabal’s expertise and ambitions.

“Nigerians should understand when discussions about cabals are raised. It would be unfair to posterity to deny the existence of such dangerous elements,” he added.
