The member representing Zamfara West, Abdulaziz Yari, has stated that President Bola Tinubu is confined in the presidential palace.
Speaking on Wednesday at the One Nigeria Project Conference in Abuja, he asserted that the Nigerian presidency is run from a location other than the Presidential Villa.
The former governor of Zamfara bemoaned the fact that the country’s elites are the source of its problems.
Speaking further, he said that the United States President, Donald Trump, can’t help Nigeria.
Yari remarked, “This country called Nigeria, America says their own country is God’s own country, but this country called Nigeria is more of God’s own country than any other.
“This is because so many havoc initiated by we ourselves but we need to come together.
“The nation persisted despite a few problems before to 1999. Look at June 12, people thought the country will go away but God that made the country in 1914 together, that God is in charge and would remain in charge.
Therefore, anyone who believes differently shouldn’t waste his time since Nigeria is here to stay as a nation.
“Don’t call Trump, it’s the business of Nigerians, Trump has no business in Nigeria. He can’t fix the problem of Nigeria, the problem of Nigeria may be handled by Nigerians.
“I was with the President in the night and I told him that I would be here and if he has time, he should watch what we are doing and I think this organization should be given the support.
“The elite is the issue; Tinubu is being mistreated by those who know more about the issue than the facts.
“Those close to the Presidency know that the Presidency is being run from outside the Villa than inside the Villa. We already have the President confined there, we locked him but we do the operations. Why not consider the trust that has been bestowed upon you?
