The Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi, has implored Nigerians to be patient with President Bola Tinubu on his decision to remove fuel subsidy, which resulted in the hike in prices of goods and services in the country, saying this is the only way to advert the looming explosion.
He made the plea in Ibadan while speaking with newsmen on the current economic tension in the country.
The Ooni described President Tinubu as a decisive leader who is ready to serve the nation with his depth of knowledge and experience.
According to him, “Tinubu is a very decisive leader. I want to implore everybody, especially the youths of this country, to be patient with him. He is much focused; God has blessed him.
“In everything that he has been doing, he has been very consistent over the last 30 years and it is now for him to give back to the country. We should keep praying for him every day. The President is getting stronger, wiser and his public rating keeps going up.
“I am very positive he’s going to be the best president ever produced in Nigeria”, Ogunwusi emphasised.
He advised the President not to waste time in tackling the challenges confronting the country as a man of action that he was known to be.
The Ooni also averred that as the country just transited to another civilian government, it’s best for all hands to be on deck regardless of affiliations, as the election had gone and governance and putting Nigeria on the right path to greatness should be a collective effort.
