Okupe to Dele Momodu: Your assessment of Tinubu’s administration focused on assumptions


 Doyin Okupe, a former presidential aide, has faulted the assessment of President Bola Tinubu’s administration by Dele Momodu, a chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

 

In an open letter to Tinubu on Thursday, Momodu said Nigeria is in “big trouble,”  noting that the country’s economy has “virtually collapsed”.

 

Momodu asked Tinubu to stop the “reckless propensity for wasting scarce resources,” adding that funds should be used for “serious development”.

 

“Purchasing presidential jets, building outlandish monuments, distributing cash as palliatives, etc. are signs of a failed and careless government,” the PDP chieftain had written.

 

 “If you can curb the excessive spending of your government, you will free up a lot of resources for serious development.”

 

The open letter elicited a plethora of reactions.

 

Responding to Momodu’s letter, Reno Omokri, a former presidential aide, said the PDP chieftain “focused more on assumptions” in asserting that the country’s economy is collapsing.



Supporting Omokri’s comments, Okupe said Momodu “confused the prevailing hardship” in the country with “economic health and viability”.

 

Okupe said the positive growth indices highlighted by Omokri are indications of “imminent recovery” of the Nigerian economy.


 



Responding to Okupe, Momodu said Nigerians have never had it so bad as it relates to the economic situation of the country.

 

The PDP chieftain wondered why Tinubu suddenly became the “idol” of Okupe and Omokri despite the “reckless spending” by his administration.

 


Reacting to Momodu, Okupe said the publisher of Ovation Magazine did not state the facts of the matter in his assessment of Tinubu’s administration.

 

The former presidential aide said Momodu’s comment that he has praised every president from 1999 till date is not factual.
