He said, "When Buhari came, he said he wanted to confront corruption, insecurity, unemployment and power; he‎ set an agenda, the nation is working and is going on. To me, they are going ‎the right way, they are not deviating from what they said they will do."

When asked if he will join All Progressives Congress like other PDP members, Tukur said he cannot change his character at 80 saying, "at 80 what do you want somebody to do. You want to change somebody's character at 80? Is it possible? At 80 you remain who you are because you cannot bend anymore. If you do it by force, you will break."
