A professor of Parasitology and a Chieftain of the All Progressives Congress in Kaduna,  Shehu Usman Adamu, said though the North had been in problem, it is presently in 'serious' problem and bedevilled with monumental developmental challenges under the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari.

EXPOSED: How President Buhari’s Aides Connived With Ministry Of Power Officials To Fleece Government Of Over N14bn

A grand corruption scheme involving two of President Muhammadu Buhari’s trusted aides has been uncovered. Investigations by SaharaReporters indicated that Senior Special Assistant to the President (Domestic), Abba Sarki, and Personal Assistant and Private Secretary, Sabiu ‘Tunde’ Yusuf, in collaboration with some Ministry of Power officials had pushed the government to commit to the purchase of a building for the Transmission Company of Nigeria at a grossly inflated price in Abuja.
