<span class="ql-cursor">The National President of the Arewa Youth Consultative Forum (AYCF), Alhaji Yerima Shettima says he wishes that corrupt politicians will not incapacitate President-elect Bola Tinubu when he is inaugurated as the substantive President on May 29, 2023.</span>
<span class="ql-cursor">
</span>

</span>
<span class="ql-cursor">He said Tinubu has numerous challenges ahead to combat which include how to steady the country’s struggling economy, address excessive foreign borrowings, tackle security crises and revamp Nigeria’s global image.</span>

<span class="ql-cursor">Shettima said, “I think the incoming President will have to deal more with a struggling national economy ravaged by poverty, caused mainly by excessive foreign loans, face insecurity frontally and do a lot to rebuild our international image.” </span>
<span class="ql-cursor">
</span>
<span class="ql-cursor">“To be very honest, the incoming government has a huge, multifaceted challenge ahead, and we can only pray it does what is right. I only hope politicians won’t ambush him like they did to Buhari.”</span>

</span>
<span class="ql-cursor">In his assessment of President Muhammadu Buhari who will be wrapping up his two tenures in a few days, Shettima said though he failed in some areas, but he was not a total failure as the country’s leader.</span>
<span class="ql-cursor">
</span>
<span class="ql-cursor">Shettima said, “Well, President Buhari has done what he could do as a president, though many observers have argued that he didn’t do well and they gave their reasons, and the reasons were quite convincing. That is regrettable.</span>
<span class="ql-cursor">
</span>
<span class="ql-cursor">“But I would not say Buhari has no single achievement as a leader because doing so is not my style. There are areas he truly did well, and there are areas he performed below expectations.”</span>
