Adebayo Tells Tinubu to Stop Blaming Inherited Problems and Focus on Fixing the Economy
Adewole Adebayo, the 2023 presidential candidate for the Social Democratic Party (SDP), has urged President Bola Tinubu to stop referring to the challenges he inherited and to focus on the actions he has taken since assuming office.
Adebayo pointed out that the issues Tinubu claims to have encountered were the same ones he spoke about during his campaign, which ultimately led to his victory in the 2023 election.
During his appearance on Channels Television’s Sunday Politics, Adebayo criticized the President for not prioritizing economic stabilization before implementing certain policies, such as the controversial removal of the petroleum subsidy.
He argued that these decisions contributed to skyrocketing inflation, which has further strained Nigeria’s economy.
According to Adebayo, the government’s inability to manage inflation and stabilize the exchange rate is a significant failure of the current administration.
He emphasized that when a leader steps into office, they should be prepared for the existing challenges. He noted that if a change of leadership were to happen in 2027, the incoming president would already have an idea of the issues they would inherit.
Adebayo also acknowledged Tinubu’s sincerity but expressed concern about his approach. He pointed out that while Tinubu’s desire to reform the country’s fiscal policies and reduce government spending was understandable, the method used to remove the fuel subsidy was flawed.
By removing the subsidy abruptly, the government caused a ripple effect, increasing costs and inflation, while failing to address Nigeria’s most pressing problems, including unemployment and foreign exchange management.
The Oyo State Voluntary Campaigners (OSVC) have accused Primate Elijah Ayodele of using his so-called prophecies to manipulate politicians for personal financial gain. The group was reacting to Ayodele’s latest prophecy, where he claimed that Minister of Power Adebayo Adelabu would not succeed in becoming the Governor of Oyo State in 2027 due to political challenges and rising tension in the state.
According to Ayodele, unrest is building in Oyo, with Muslims preparing for a major political shift and the Oke-Ogun region set to push back against Ibadan’s dominance—making it difficult for Adelabu to win. But OSVC isn’t buying it. In a statement signed by its chairman, Dr. Dele Atiba, the group described the Lagos-based cleric as a spiritual gambler who targets politicians in power with the hope of profiting from them.
They warned that Ayodele’s messages are nothing more than calculated attempts to get the attention of political figures and milk them financially. The group also pointed out inconsistencies in his past prophecies, such as claiming in 2022 that Bola Tinubu would lose the election, only to later endorse him for 2027.
Atiba said if Ayodele continues to spread what they described as blackmail disguised as prophecy, the group would not hesitate to take legal action and expose what they call evidence of manipulation and deceit. He urged the public to be cautious and not fall for what he termed “tricks” disguised as divine messages.
Activist and lawyer Deji Adeyanju has stirred fresh political conversation by referring to Peter Obi, the former Labour Party presidential candidate, as a stumbling block to Atiku Abubakar’s ambitions. Adeyanju believes Obi played a key role in preventing Atiku from winning the 2023 presidential election—and he’s confident history will repeat itself in 2027.
Back in 2019, Atiku and Obi were on the same ticket under the PDP but failed to unseat then-President Muhammadu Buhari. After that loss, Obi parted ways with the PDP and ran for president under the Labour Party in 2023, where he finished third.
Taking to X, Adeyanju shared his blunt view: “Obi is the weapon formed against Atiku. He blocked his path to the presidency before, and he’ll do it again. Stop championing people who won’t even lift a finger for themselves. Don’t overdo it—relax.”
Dangote Petroleum Refinery has lowered the price of Premium Motor Spirit (PMS), or petrol, to N825 per litre, down from N835, as competition heats up in Nigeria’s fuel market.
This follows last month’s price reduction, when the 650,000 barrels per day refinery dropped the price from N865 to N835. The recent price change is aimed at providing more value to customers while strengthening Dangote’s position as a leader in the domestic market.
