'We Are Turning Into Beggars', Usman Yusuf Decries Nigeria's Economic Situation | Politics Today

[@HispleMedia]

I like listening to this smooth talking man... No matter what he is talking about, listening to him is therapeutic. 🎉

[@Heegooat]

His hand gestures are really artistic.

[@echibernard7290]

​@@HeegooatThe first time in years that I am calmly listening to someone talk about Nigeria and it's problems. The hand movement is as smooth as can be

[@kingsleydilioha1358]

Am so relieved by this man. So we have this kind of person in Nigeria

[@QuantumCode-v2m]

HE IS THE REAL MAN

[@HumphreyOgolo]

Dr you have said it all, feed the people before is too late.

[@ahagabe673]

I can joblessly sit all day listening to this special prof from the north. Thumbs up sir

[@mikolowiskamikolowiska4993]

Mission accomplished. They send him to Keri you joblessly listening instead of entering farm

[@kangiwa1635]

Don’t be carried away. Professor Yusuf is a smooth operator. If he is interested in a working Nigeria, he must use all his energy to educate the gullible masses of the Northwest and Northeast and ride them off their jihadist mentality. Without reform or call it restructuring of Nigeria , there is no end in site of our economic and political predicament. His likes live in a mental slavery. He knows the truth. It’s bitter We must have that difficult conversation.

[@sadatsani490]

This is the first time I've seen Seun so quiet about the issues of Nigeria. Even his voice says it all. We are all tired.

[@traceyomoruyi302]

I'm only here because of this brilliant mind, prof Usman Yesufu. God bless you sir.

[@AlexAdebayo-o1u]

Thank God for a truthful leader like this, may you live long sir

[@martinokeke5457]

Prof, Usman Yusufu thank you for saying the truth, thank you sir.

[@okutuateotonyenathan3108]

Why is this soft-spoken man, a professor, not heeded. He is definitely making a lot of sense. Listen to him.

[@gloriamodutoane7234]

BECAUSE HE KNOWS HOW TO POINT OUT THE PROBLEMS BUT CLOSES HIS EYES ON THE SOLUTIONS. WHAT IS HIS POSITION ON MAJOR ISSUES LIKE OPEN GRAZING THAT IS DESTROYING FARMING? WHY DOES HE NOT ENCOURAGE NORTHERN LEADERS TO ACCEPT STATE POLICE AS IS DONE IN THE USA WHERE HE LIVES? WHAT WAS THE BASIS OF HIS SUPPORT FOR BUHARI AND ATIKU BID FOR PRESIDENCY.

[@Allwell823]

​@@gloriamodutoane7234don't talk out of ignorance. Go and listen to his old interviews.

[@JMax7890]

@@benmoonraker we know the north is the poorest region in the country ...the only reason for that is their leaders prefer the amajiri system than educating their youths n kids in proper schools. Bc they want to use the ignorance to fester themselves in power. Now they have a largely illiterate north n poor hence the cause of the insecurity in the north. That's not to say the east or west or south dont have massive poverty n poor leaders just that for now the north is worse even when they have massive potential for wealth in agriculture n solid minerals. So the east also have a massive poverty problem as well.

God bless you for this comment. One who listen to this soft spoken charlatan, would think his region and elitist class have never tasted political power or dominated the power structure of Nigeria before. For crying out loud, Buhari a northerner was president barely 8 months ago and the question is, what has he done for the north that they're now crying as if they're victims. Most of the people agreeing with him here are the rootless ipobians, whose hatred for anything Nigeria is deficient of logic. Yeye people
