President Bola Tinubu’s Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, has declared that his principal is not an accidental president.
Onanuga was reacting to a remark by the Catholic Bishop of
Sokoto Diocese, Matthew Kukah, that Tinubu was not prepared for leadership and
presidency.
On Sunday, Kukah said Tinubu, his predecessor Muhammadu
Buhari, and other past Nigerian leaders are products of an “accidental
leadership cycle.”
Kukah also said that many of these leaders came into power
without adequate preparation.
Reacting, Onanuga rejected Kukah’s stance, stressing that
Tinubu is a reformer doing his best as president.
In a statement he signed, Onanuga said: “He (Tinubu) is not
an accidental leader. He is doing his best to ensure that we have a turnaround
in this country.
“Does he look like one at all? What I am saying is that the
man is not an accidental leader. He was prepared for this office. He even said
it himself that he prepared for it and that he is doing his best to ensure that
this country is lifted higher than he met it. He is doing his best.
“Because he prepared himself for the office, he is doing a
lot of reforms. He is touching every area, and he is trying to make sure that
this country is being turned around.
“For those who said that the President is an accidental
leader, that is the reason he is struggling.
“Tinubu has shown that he is a reformer, and reforms are not
done in quick fixes. It takes time for you to turn things around, and he is
doing it.”
