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.

Ben Bruce takes to social media to invite the former senator to be present at the event and sit as a judge.

Nigerian Comedian, Mr Macaroni expresses dissatisfaction with the Governor of Lagos State over traffic issues.
It can be reported that Lagos has been suffering through a serious traffic phase. The reason behind this was revealed to be the Independence Bridge repairs.
Governor Sanwo Olu then pleaded with Lagosians to bear with the traffic as the repair is necessary. “Let’s think outside the box. If you don’t have business to do in Victoria Island in the next 2 to 3 weeks, conduct your business online and plan ahead.”
However, Mr Macaroni reacts to the Governor’s plea by stating “If the government had any regard whatsoever for the people of Lagos, these measures and more extensive ones would have been taken before yesterday to make this process as painless as possible for the people.”
He lamented on the serious effect that this traffic has taken on people’s day to day life and shared that the government didn’t consider its people.
Michelle Obama recently shared that when she first met Barack Obama, he wasn’t “financially sound.”
The couple crossed paths in 1988 when Barack joined a law firm in Chicago, where Michelle was already working. On a recent podcast episode she hosts with her brother, Craig, Michelle reflected on the importance of financial stability in a relationship.
During a conversation with British author Jay Shetty, Craig asked Michelle, “Would you be attracted to a guy who’s not financially stable when you meet him?”
Without hesitation, Michelle replied, “Uh, I married one.”
Craig, who seemed to have set her up for that response, laughed and jokingly said, “Don’t you like that alley-oop I just threw you? In basketball, you just point—you don’t even have to say it.”
