National leader of the All Progressives Congress, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu on
Saturday described President Goodluck Jonathan’s administration as shameless.
He added that rather than account for the alleged missing $20bn oil
revenue, it kept giving untenable excuses.
Tinubu said, “They are so shameless that the number of years they have
ruled does not matter to them. Don’t change the subject matter. Account for the
missing money or go. All the explanations they gave about the missing money are
just explanations. They steal from pensioners. We must kick them out.”
The APC leader who spoke at the sixth Bola Tinubu Colloquium in Lagos
titled ‘The Summit of the Common man’, added that the electorate would not
continue to vote for a government that refused to give them electricity.
“The change is for you to vote and defend it. We must break the shackles
of poverty. How can we continue to vote for a government that refused to give
us petrol and which removed subsidy on petroleum products. Are we sadistic? Do
we enjoy being punished?” he stated.
Also, Lagos State Governor, Babatunde Fashola urged the electorate to be
mindful of those they elect.
He said, “ You must pay critical attention to the people you vote for.
I know that we have employed somebody for the top job in this country
but when we asked him about his qualifications and experience, he said he had
no shoes. You must decide whether you want someone who spends most of his time
in church or mosque, or the man who is ready to spend his time on the job.”
Fashola also said Tinubu had solved problems, built an array of leaders
and passed the torch to them.
Selected Nigerians across the country also shared their experiences
ranging from unemployment, poverty, and injustice to audiences at event.
They included a farmer, Nasiru Daudawa, an unemployed graduate, Sopriye
Victor and a fisherman, Eric Dooh.
In his remark, Chairman of the event, The Most Reverend, Ephraim
Ademowo, described the APC national leader as an uncommon man.
He said, “He is a consummate and tested politician. A master strategist
and a libertarian par excellence. He is kind to a fault.”
Those who attended the event included APC interim Chairman, Chief Bisi
Akande, a former military Head of State, Maj.-Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (retd),
Chief Segun Osoba, Prof Pat Utomi, Governors of Ogun, Osun and Ekiti states,
among many others.
Efforts to reach the Special Adviser on Media and Publicity to President
Goodluck Jonathan Dr. Reuben Abati, for his comments were futile on Saturday
night. Calls made to his mobile number by our correspondent didn’t go through
while a text message to the same number was not replied as at press time.

ReplyDeleteOur leaders should be modest in making speccehes and should not throw decorum to the wind. The language of Tinumbu whom I respect so much was indecent. Politics apart, we need to respect our president as we want others respect us. Leaders shouldavoid making infflamatory statements at this period.
