President Bola Tinubu’s Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, has declared that his principal is not an accidental president.
Onanuga was reacting to a remark by the Catholic Bishop of Sokoto Diocese, Matthew Kukah, that Tinubu was not prepared for leadership and presidency.
On Sunday, Kukah said Tinubu, his predecessor Muhammadu Buhari, and other past Nigerian leaders are products of an “accidental leadership cycle.”
Kukah also said that many of these leaders came into power without adequate preparation.
Reacting, Onanuga rejected Kukah’s stance, stressing that Tinubu is a reformer doing his best as president.
In a statement he signed, Onanuga said: “He (Tinubu) is not an accidental leader. He is doing his best to ensure that we have a turnaround in this country.
“Does he look like one at all? What I am saying is that the man is not an accidental leader. He was prepared for this office. He even said it himself that he prepared for it and that he is doing his best to ensure that this country is lifted higher than he met it. He is doing his best.
“Because he prepared himself for the office, he is doing a lot of reforms. He is touching every area, and he is trying to make sure that this country is being turned around.
“For those who said that the President is an accidental leader, that is the reason he is struggling.
“Tinubu has shown that he is a reformer, and reforms are not done in quick fixes. It takes time for you to turn things around, and he is doing it.”
