…Urges reversal of reforms
Gani Adams, the Aare Ona Kakanfo of Yorubaland, has expressed displeasure over the policies and administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
Gani Adams, in an open letter to the President, said that Tinubu’s administration has become indifferent, insensitive and unresponsive to the plight of Nigerians.
In the letter, titled: ‘President Bola Tinubu, Time is Going,’, Adams lamented that the government has failed to address the economic hardship and insecurity faced by citizens.
He said that President Tinubu’s policies had made Nigerians poorer, noting that it was obvious that the President did not care about the suffering of the masses.
Adams stressed that there was no rationale behind the reforms and some policies of Tinubu’s administration, stating that it had exacerbated the suffering of Nigerians.
According to him, “Tinubu’s administration has disappointed many Nigerians who had high hopes for his leadership.”
He cited the increase in fuel prices, from less than N200 to over N1000 per litre, and the depreciation of the Naira from less than N740 to over N1,600 per Dollar, as examples of the government’s poor performance style.
The letter also berated the government’s handling of insecurity, stressing that the rate of abductions and killings has increased despite the presence of Security Chiefs. He queried the briefings provided to the President by his security team, expressing worries about the harassment of human rights activists and civil society organisations.
Adams reminded Tinubu of his campaign promises and urged him to reverse the current trend of hardship and oppression. He warned that the situation may trigger further crisis if not addressed immediately.
He further criticised the President for the arrest of Labour leaders and charging peaceful protesters across the country with treason, while accusing the President of dictatorial tendencies.
