Datti Baba-Ahmed, the 2023 Vice-Presidential candidate of the Labour Party, has claimed that the intense push to unseat former President Goodluck Jonathan in 2015 is a key factor behind the widespread insecurity plaguing Nigeria today.
Datti made this assertion on Tuesday during an appearance on Politics Today, a programme aired on Channels Television.
“I contested with the late former president Muhammadu Buhari in 2011. But ever since he made a security threat comment, I refused to go out with him.
“It didn’t matter if I lost the Senate seat, but I won it eventually. Buhari said, you [will all be] soaked in blood. Kaduna is my state. There was serious violence in Kaduna. Many houses were burnt.
“They went and brought people from neighbouring countries in readiness to remove Jonathan,” Datti stated.
