Nigerians
fail to see it but this is the man who is going to deliver Nigeria from
all this madness of insurgency, economic rot and education woes. In
2015, I wanna say All hail President Tinubu. The Umbrella has been
replaced by the broom. I believe in APC so now he should be the
Presidential candidate that has a proven record of setting the ball
rolling in Lagos. He turned Lagos around then handing to his Chief of
Staff who even turned it around more. This is like Obama leaving the
White House and handing over to Rahm Emmanuel some day. Emmanuel was the
Chief of Staff who eventually left to go back to Chicago and is now the
Mayor handling Chi town’s gun violence. Remi is so vibrant as a Former
First Lady and present Senator with that Hillary Clinton syndrome. These
people have a record that’s PROVE
He said the CONFAB was not necessary. The National Dialogue is a
waste of time. I personally think we need Town Hall Meetings with the
PRESIDENT like they do in America! Remember how I got Chief Bill Blair
in Toronto to start having them when gun violence got bad? Come to the
neighborhoods Mr Jonathan and I will moderate them. Nigerians need
accountability!!
He returned from abroad yesterday after knee surgery. He is our
future and I need to secure an interview with him. Below is the Nigerian
Tribune report of his arrival.
Former governor of Lagos State, Chief Ahmed Bola Tinubu, on Saturday,
arrived the country to a tumultuous welcome by governors, All
Progressive Congress (APC) chieftains and party faithful, among others
who thronged the Executive Jet near the Presidential Wing of the Murtala
Mohammed Airport, Ikeja.
Both governors Kayode Fayemi (Ekiti) and Rauf Aregbesola (Osun) were
joined by Senator Oluremi, wife of Tinubu, Speaker, Lagos State House of
Assembly, Hon Adeyemi Ikuforiji, former Deputy Governor Rafiu Ogunleye,
Lagos APC chairman, Chief Henry Ajomale, Senator Ganiyu Solomon,
Senator Olorunnimbe Mamora, commissioners and local government chairmen,
to welcome the APC national leader, whose chartered plane with
registration no: CS-OPF touched down at around 1:32pm from the United
Kingdom.
As the plane parked and the door was opened, Tinubu’s wife, Oluremi,
led the way, followed by her daughter, Folasade Ojo and governors Fayemi
and Aregbesola to welcome the former, who went for a knee surgery at US
and UK hospitals for two months.
The former governor later emerged at 1:38pm waving, while the crowd
of supporters became ecstatic as governors and other party chieftains
took turn to have snap-shots with him before he finally alighted from
the plane and was led into his waiting jeep.
He later addressed the press as he spoke through the roof of the
vehicle taking a swipe at President Goodluck Jonathan-led government
over the recent move to convene a national conference and the air
disaster that affected the corpse of former Governor Olusegun Agagu, in
which 13 people died. He also spoke on his newly registered party, the
APC.
Tinubu described the move by President Jonathan to hold a national
conference right now in the country as unnecessary, a contradiction and a
distraction, as well as a demonstration of lack of honesty and
integrity on the part of the government.
The APC national leader, while querying the timing of the dialogue,
asked: “When? How long have we been talking of it? It is only a very
smart rodent in a house full of little crumbles of poison that will
survive.”
The former governor, who further wondered why the focus on national
dialogue should come around now, maintained that some salient issues had
been jettisoned and should be addressed as a matter of priority.
“But Nigeria is very divisive right now, so why is this necessary?
Where is the sovereignty? What about the Electoral Act, what about the
Lemu Committee? Have you heard of a White Paper or green paper or pink
paper come out of that for Nigerians? Why? How many months to the
elections? How many months to the election?
Can’t you smell a good look porridge; can’t you smell a pit latrine
and the odour of deception when it is passing by?” he queried.
He dismissed the suggestion that the election be postponed in other
to have the national conference discuss the way forward for the country,
saying “that is the saying of a thief, because he wants to continue to
pilfer because he is enjoying as a thief.”
“What are you postponing about the election? Is it with the head you
walk or with the feet? You must stand on something,” he added.
