Delivering a lecture at the Usmanu Danfordiyo University in Sokoto, Ribadu said Tinubu handed over strategic portfolios such as security, defense, agriculture, education, health, and foreign affairs to northerners, as the region was “very dear to his heart.”
According to Ribadu, Tinubu’s decision was driven by his desire to tackle the alarming poverty index, insecurity, out-of-school children, and other pressing issues in the northern region. The NSA urged northerners to put aside their differences and work together for the betterment of the region and the country as a whole.
“At the time he (Tinubu) was forming this government, he said the North was very dear to his heart that he would do everything to address its challenges,” Ribadu said. “This is why he appointed northerners into key offices.”

He expressed confidence that Nigeria will see significant improvements under Tinubu’s leadership.
“We will continue to work. We are not jokers. We are serious and in Sha Allah, Nigeria will see the difference,” Ribadu added.
