Former Labour Party vice-presidential candidate Datti Baba-Ahmed has claimed that he nearly halted the swearing-in of President Bola Tinubu’s administration.

He stated that the All Progressives Congress (APC) has not recovered from a few comments he made.

Speaking, Baba-Ahmed lamented that his warning to Nigerians was ignored.

He urged citizens not to wait for foreign powers, especially the United States, to rescue the country.

He said, “I nearly stopped the swearing-in of this government. Up till today, some elements are blaming me. Ever since a few comments I made, the APC has not recovered.

“We were telling the people repeatedly, and they wouldn’t listen. That is why we are paying a very high price.
