Why Has Tinubu Not Addressed Jingir’s Alleged Divisive Remarks?

Jingir reportedly described President Bola Tinubu as his hero and praised the Muslim-Muslim ticket as a symbol of Islamic supremacy. He also allegedly said the ticket would “show the infidels,” referring to Christians and traditional worshippers. Supporters of Tinubu have criticised Peter Obi for not publicly restraining supporters who make divisive remarks. Why has Tinubu not been similarly pressured to denounce comments made by influential supporters such as Jingir? MURIC has also strongly backed the Muslim-Muslim ticket using rhetoric many Nigerians consider divisive. Critics argue that continued silence from the President could be interpreted as approval.
