Emefiele, Bawa: Tinubu becoming most progressive president in Nigeria’s history – Omokri

Barely two weeks in office, Reno Omokri, a socio-political activist, has said President Bola Tinubu is becoming the most progressive president in Nigeria’s history.

Omokri said Tinubu’s recent actions are turning him into one of the most progressive presidents in Nigeria’s history.

However, the former aide to ex-President Goodluck Jonathan said the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, would defeat Tinubu at the tribunal, despite his good start.

Following his assumption of office, Tinubu removed Godwin Emefiele as the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN, and Abdulrasheed Bawa as the Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC.

Tinubu also removed the subsidy on fuel, signed the student loan bill, and stopped the Nigerian Labour Congress, NLC, from embarking on a nationwide strike.

Omokri tweeted: “President Bola Tinubu entered office as one of the least popular, supposedly elected leaders in Nigeria’s history. In two weeks, he is turning out to be one of the most progressive Presidents in our recent history, simply by his actions after his swearing-in.

“Nigerians are not hard to please. Apart from those using politics to hide their secessionist agenda, most Nigerians seem to be happy with his performance thus far. And his popularity is high right now.

“Except you are not being honest with yourself. If he continues this way, even the secessionist agenda will be defeated by good governance in a way that it could not be militarily vanquished by General Buhari.

“For those who understand Yoruba, President Tinubu is fulfilling the meaning of his moniker, Asiwaju. The PDP and Waziri Atiku Abubakar would have been better.

“Whatever the Supreme Court rules, we will accept. But at the end of the day, whether PDP or APC, all we want is good governance for Nigeria.”
