The Presidency has declared that President Bola Tinubu is not weak to allow room for the military to take power from him.
Tinubu’s Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Bayo
Onanuga, made the remark in response to an editorial published by The Guardian,
titled, ‘Misery, harsh policies driving Nigerians to desperate choices’.
In an open letter condemning the editorial, Onanuga accused
the news platform of attempting to incite unrest against Tinubu’s
administration.
The letter reads partly: “The Guardian newspaper’s lead
story of Friday, October 25, 2024, with the title: “Calls for military
intervention: misery, harsh policies driving Nigerians to desperate choices,”
openly incites unrest against President Bola Tinubu’s administration and
advocates for regime change under the guise of journalism. The inflammatory
headline, cartoon and content deviate from responsible reporting.
“The Guardian’s agenda is unmistakable from the cover
illustration to the article. In attempting to create a balanced veneer, the
author condemns military rule while fanning the flames of military
intervention.
“We must question how The Guardian can present an argument
for military intervention while superficially denouncing it unless it harbours
a deliberate agenda.
“We must question how The Guardian can present an argument
for military intervention while superficially denouncing it unless it harbours
a deliberate agenda. This latest editorial reflects a troubling trend in which
the publication has persistently propagated inflammatory and negative
narratives, stepping dangerously close to undermining the very fabric of
responsible journalism.
“President Tinubu has consistently called for understanding
and patience amid our nation’s challenges. This plea is not a sign of weakness
but an affirmation of his dedication to a brighter future for Nigeria.”
