'Our president, veep are Muslims, but they are killing Muslims' - Former NHIS boss

Former Executive Secretary of the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS), Prof Usman Yusuf, has expressed his disappointment at the recent Kaduna bombing incident.

Recall that the Nigerian Army confirmed the bombing incident which claimed the lives of 120 residents in Tudun Biri Village in Igabi Local Government Area of Kaduna while they were celebrating Maulud Nabbiy (Prophet Muhammad’s birthday).

Speaking in an interview with Arise Television, Yusuf, noted that the actions of the Nigerian Army and the presidency is unstable.

According to him, the All Progressives Congress, APC, sold a fraudulent Muslim-Muslim ticket to the people.

He said that despite the President and the Vice President being Muslims, Muslims in the North are still being killed.

"The Muslim clerics in the North came and sold this fraudulent Muslim-Muslim ticket and we have Muslim Vice President and Muslim President. Our people in the North are saying you are killing Muslims, inflicting a lot more pain on Muslims. You closed the borders along all the seven Northern states because you want to go to war with Niger. You are inflicting pain. Now you are killing Muslims. Look at the Military hierarchy, people are being mischievous. Look at the operational Military hierarchy and look at their religion. The military needs to be very careful and start doing damage control fast," he said.
