Former presidential candidate of the Social Democratic Party (SDP), Prince Adewole Adebayo, yesterday scored the administration of President Bola Tinubu low in the areas of security and socio-economic development.

Adewole, who said this in Ilorin, Kwara State after organising iftar for some selected people, noted that many Nigerians were disappointed in Tinubu whom they initially saw as a renewed hope after the late Chief MKO Abiola.

He said: “Tinubu is the current champion of disgrace. Among the long lines that have been coming with it. Because it is a disgrace where you are not able to feed the poor in a land of plenty when you fix roads.

“All of us who are here now, we came from Ondo, and our ears are banging as we are here now as if we went to an amusement park. So I think that we should have a serious government.

“Our constitution is designed with serious language in it. They are expecting that the person who is the president, head of state, or commander in chief will be someone who knows that this is the airport of black people in the world. And we should not be a basket case.

“Poverty, insecurity, underdevelopment, unemployment, those are the things that we are having conversations about. There are those who want to get to power anyhow and they will combine even with the devil.”

Adewole said that those of them in the SDP are only interested in serving the people, adding that some politicians who want to join the party were clamouring for themselves.

“Nigerians have reached a point that there is nowhere to go. In the next five years, population will grow by at least 10%. There’s no work, there’s no food, there’s no education, there’s no housing, there’s no space in the public service.

“President Muhammad Buhari came on National Television and said, “in my government, there is no space for anybody. Go and farm.” But he didn’t give lands, he didn’t give security, he didn’t give fertilizer. So, these people are not even talking to you, Tinubu is more of a president of France, maybe deputy president of France, than a president of Nigeria.

“So we need to be serious, it is not about giving position, it’s about serving the people. The true position that is relevant in Nigeria is the position of citizen of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. Let them say, “why are you smiling?” You’ll say because I’m a Nigerian.

“Why are you well fed? Because I’m a Nigerian. Why did you get this job? Because I’m a Nigerian. Why do you feel safe to speak? Because I’m a Nigerian. When last did you count all the asset God gave to you and you remembered you are a Nigerian? That must happen in our lifetime,” Adewole said.
