Barely 154 days after taking office, there is growing discontent in President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s camp, especially among his close allies and party elders, with his style of governance and some of his policy decisions.• ‘Osoba, Akande Now Treated Like Outsiders’Barely 154 days after taking office, there is growing discontent in President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s camp, especially among his close allies and party elders, with his style of governance and some of his policy decisions.
A series of policies introduced by President Tinubu since assuming office have left Nigerians facing varying degrees of economic hardships. Recall that only few days ago, the apex Yoruba socio-cultural body, Afenifere, called government’s attention to the state of insecurity across the country, urging that something be done to stem the ugly development.
One of the political blocs said to be discontented with Tinubu’s style of appointment is the Southwest and Northwest Muslim stakeholders in the ruling party. They expressed fears that should the economic crunch continue, aside from the incumbent administration losing credibility, the situation would rubbish the long-term integrity of the Southwest zone in terms of governance.
While it is not clear whether Akande is currently in the country, part of the octogenarian’s lamentation to close friends is that he has not even been consulted on some far reaching decisions of the administration. On another hand, members of the Lagos State APC Governor’s Advisory Council are also reeling in pain, not just over appointments, but the way the country is running. One of them lamented how his children asked him, “Is this all that your Tinubu has to offer?”
According to one of the party faithful, because the majority of the elders have benefited unduly, “they cannot face the President to tell him the truth.” On the economy, a former General Secretary of Yoruba Council of Elders , Dr. Kunle Olajide, said the crisis of economy is a global challenge and Nigeria is not exempted.
