A former national chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Adams Oshiomhole, declared that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu does not have magical solutions to the nation’s problems.

The former governor of Edo State made the declaration when he appeared as a guest on Channels Television’s ‘Politics Today’ on Sunday, July 23.

According to him, during campaigns, President Tinubu and the APC never promised to fix the country in 24 hours.

He stressed that Nigerians knew they didn’t elect a magician and no one promised a magical solution.

“I know what we (APC) promised more than you. Whatever is reported, we are the source. We did not promise anyone a 24-hour solution, and we did not promise an overnight solution. Can you show me any document where we said in 24 hours, this will be done?

“I think you are the ones who have the illusion that once a promise is made, automatically once he (Tinubu) gets into office, either spiritually or by miracles, solutions will emerge.

“What Nigerians need is what the president has demonstrated – the courage to take the decision, humility to admit some of the unintended consequences of those decisions, and, of course, the will to deal with those consequences,” he said.

Oshimhole further listed some of Nigeria’s major challenges and noted that they are not things that can be fixed in one day.

The former Nigeria Labour Congress chairman also cautioned against making intemperate attacks on the Tinubu-led administration in response to the fuel price hike.

He said Tinubu deserves to be praised for how he has hit the ground running since assuming office.

Same excuses Buhari gave for 8 years.

I am surprised they brilliantly avoided blaming previous administration.

Where are the plans and blueprints that will give Nigerians an assurance this administration knows what they are doing.


Awon eleribu somebody!

He has found his voice at last ... Back from obscurity. Oh Nigeria my country.

So what's the essence of his aspiration ?
Just to. E the President at the expense of further suffering of the masses ?

He said Tinubu deserves to be praised for how he has hit the ground running since assuming office.

Hit the ground running by turning the country upside just few weeks after inauguration


I'm yet to meet an APC member with sound reasoning. Seems lack of sense is the prerequisite to be a member.

But he is a magician when.it comes to suffering, hunger, shame, poverty and backwardness, inflation,etc..

Make una try they think bf una talk.

Reality sets in.

The blame game don Kickstart

Just few months on Apc government is yet to show us clear path for this new administration?

From buhari to tinubu


Are we not still blaming pdp

Same criminals that promised eldorado are the same people shamelessly denying and distracting themselves

How can someone whom his supporters claimed performed magic by building Lagos from scratch suddenly can't perform the same magic on the entire country

TemplarLandry:
Stop seeing the khaki-wearing Oshiomole as a comrade. He's now more of a politician, senator and former governor looking to be in the good books of his political clique.

Don't fall for his trick of pretending to speak for the masses.

Oshiomole betrayed the masses like Caesar to Brutus.

I diss him with “Forgive Them Father” by Lauryn Hill. Great jam!

When did he claim to speak for the masses

Nice one this is just the beginning

Oshiomhole I don't blame you.

Oshiomhole is a cancaworm

The same thing these idiots said during Buhari.....

Nigeria e don be for una oooo

You guys didn't promise the people a miracle; but you also are not expected to make life more difficult...Orisa bi oo Le gba mi, Fi mi so le boo se ba mi (Deity, if you can't save me, leave me the way you met me)

Ok
