Tinubu in Paris: Who Wants to Sabotage His Efforts?
By Arabinrin Aderonke Ogunleye- Bello, June 26, 2023.
The attempts to undermine the achievements of Mr. President during his visit to France are unfair.
This set of people wants to diminish the growing popularity and global recognition of Tinubu’s accomplishments within just three weeks of his tenure. However, their efforts will ultimately prove futile.
Initially, their strategy began with the spread of rumors regarding the increase in electricity tariffs. It is suspicious that such rumors surfaced precisely when Tinubu was diligently working towards revitalizing the Nigerian economy. It appears that they intend to cause more problems for the poor despite Tinubu’s statement, “Let the poor breath”.
Additionally, fake news has been circulated about salary increments. It is surprising why such claims were made in the absence of the president, especially considering that he had not been briefed on the matter. The motive behind publicizing this information without verifying its authenticity seems rooted in a mischievous desire to create problems for a president who is already performing well.
Rest assured, their endeavors will not succeed, and upon his return, I hope the President will initiate an investigation or inquiry into the circulation of such fake news and duly punish those responsibly.
During the initial weeks of his tenure, Tinubu introduced and set in motion policies aimed at uplifting Nigerians from the clutches of economic regression. Unfortunately, some individuals oppose these measures and seek to discredit his efforts, despite the widespread praise he has received both domestically and internationally.
Their actions display a coordinated pattern, utilizing both mainstream and social media platforms to disseminate falsehoods. Even after the Presidency officially denied these claims, they kept on engaging in the campaign of calumny indicating a hidden agenda behind their actions.
To those who engage in sabotage, be aware that this government is here to stay, regardless of the level of obstruction you attempt to bring. asiwaju and his team is fully prepared to overcome and crush the efforts of saboteurs, and they remain determined to succeed in their mission.
In conclusion, everyone must join hands to support the government’s initiatives and contribute to the journey of renewed hope. Tinubu has genuine intentions and deserves our collective support.
