Ex-Tinubu Campaign Director Naja’atu Claims Donald Trump Now Rules Nigeria, Condemns ‘Recolonisation’

Kano-based politician and former Bola Tinubu campaign director, Hajiya Naja’atu Mohammed, alleged that Nigeria is effectively no longer under President Tinubu’s control, claiming that U.S. influence, particularly from former President Donald Trump, now dominates national governance. Speaking to Arewa Source, she warned that foreign intervention threatens Nigeria’s sovereignty, likening the situation to a return to colonial rule. Naja’atu criticized recent economic and security decisions, including U.S.-coordinated airstrikes on militant camps in Sokoto State, and called for protection of Nigerians’ freedom from foreign domination.
