Prof. Usman Yusuf, a former Chief Executive Officer of the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS), has accused Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, Presidential Candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), of trivilasing the plight of Nigerians, especially those in the north.
He said this in reaction to a video shared by some members of Tinubu’s campaign team in London, United Kingdom.

In the video, Tinubu was seen in a jubilant mood after Monday’s engagement at Chatham House in London.
Tinubu, surrounded by his team, was seen dancing to Kizz Daniel’s hit song ‘Buga’.
Dave Umahi, Ebonyi state governor; Nasir El-Rufai, Kaduna state governor, and Dr Kayode Fayemi, immediate past governor of Ekiti state, were also seen in the video dancing.
Reacting, Yusuf, during an interview on Arise TV, condemned their action.
“We in the north from Adamawa to Zamfara, we are still burying our dead. And the person who is aspiring to be a leader with his team in London, dancing Buga and we are taking that clip and showing our people… We are suffering. I have just come back from Katsina, spoken with IDPs, seen the suffering of our people. These are your leaders,” he said.
