APC Chieftain Says Tinubu Has Failed and Could Be a One-Term President
APC chieftain Jesutega Onokpasa has openly criticized President Bola Tinubu, saying his administration has failed badly in delivering good governance. Speaking during an interview with Arise Television on Sunday, Onokpasa warned that if Tinubu’s performance does not improve, he could end up serving only one term.
Onokpasa also spoke about Delta State Governor Sheriff Oborevwori, who he revealed is his cousin, and questioned the significance of his recent move to the APC. According to him, Oborevwori’s defection adds no real value to either the party or the state.
He stressed that instead of celebrating defections, the APC should focus on fixing the country and governing properly. “It’s not about people joining our party,” he said. “It’s about whether we are ruling well. In that sense, we have failed badly.”
Onokpasa accused Tinubu of failing to address the country’s hardship, saying the president has not been able to provide food or ease the suffering of Nigerians. Speaking on his cousin’s switch to the APC, he said, “Governor Oborevwori did not even inform me before defecting. I have no idea why he joined us, but I wish him well.”
Nigerian news analyst, Mahmud Jega, has shared his opinion on the recent airstrike carried out by the United States in Nigeria, stating that Nigerians should not blame President Bola Tinubu for the incident.
Jega made this statement during a recent interview, where he said he does not believe many people will hold the Tinubu administration responsible, as Donald Trump had issued threats against Nigeria long before Tinubu’s administration.
“No, I don’t think many people will blame the Tinubu administration for what is happening now because President Donald Trump, when he first made the threats, it was clearly not in coordination with the Tinubu administration or the government of Nigeria,” Jega said.
It has been reported that the United States carried out an airstrike targeting ISIS in the northwest region of Nigeria. The order was reportedly given by former U.S. President Donald Trump.
“Tonight, at my direction as Commander in Chief, the United States launched a powerful and deadly strike against ISIS terrorist elements in northwest Nigeria,” Trump said.
He added, “I have previously warned these terrorists that if they did not stop the slaughtering of Christians, there would be hell to pay, and tonight, there was.”
The Federal Government of Nigeria has officially declared the holiday dates for the festive season.
Thursday, December 25 will be observed as Christmas Day, December 26 as Boxing Day, and Thursday, January 1 as New Year’s Day.
The declaration was made by the Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Interior, Dr. Magdalene Ajani. He also added that Nigerians should celebrate the holidays in faith and pray for the nation.
