Tinubu not weak – Presidency dismisses military takeover



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.”
