The Secretary-General of the Arewa Consultative Forum (ACF), Murtala Aliyu, has rejected the claims in some quarters that it criticised President Bola Tinubu’s administration because the president is a southerner, insisting that it criticised the present administration with the same vigour it applied in its criticism of the administration of ex-President Muhammadu Buhari.
This is just as the Northern Elders’ Forum (NEF) on Saturday, reaffirmed its rejection of the Tax Reform Bill, saying it threatened national cohesion and was “conceived in bad faith.”
