Tunji-Ojo Defends Tinubu: Renewed Hope Agenda Moving Forward Despite Challenges

Minister of Interior Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo has stated that expecting President Bola Tinubu to resolve a century-old issue within a single year is unrealistic. He urged citizens to allow Tinubu more time to address the country’s economic challenges…….. CONTINUE READING

Tunji-Ojo made these comments while discussing the upcoming nationwide protest on Channels Television’s Sunday Politics. He emphasized that economic recovery cannot be achieved instantly.

“The current state of our economy reflects decades of mismanagement—whether it’s 100, 60, or 30 years,” Tunji-Ojo explained. “The President did not promise to be a magician; he campaigned on a platform of ‘Renewed Hope,’ recognizing that hope had diminished.”

He stressed that revitalizing hope requires time and assured that progress is being made. Tunji-Ojo also advocated for exploring all options for dialogue before proceeding with the planned protest.

The minister highlighted that President Tinubu has made significant decisions, such as removing the petrol subsidy, which he termed a major issue. He likened Nigeria’s situation to a surgical process that will ultimately lead to a healthier nation.

The protest against economic hardship, which is gaining momentum on social media, is scheduled to take place across all states and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Abuja, in August.
