Governor Hope Uzodinma of Imo State says it is too early to “judge” the performance of President Bola Tinubu in major sectors like security and economy.
Uzodinma, who is the Chairman of the Progressives Governors’ Forum of the All Progressives Congress (APC), expressed confidence that his partyman would rescue Nigeria from economic doldrums.
“I am the Chairman of the South-East Governors’ Forum, fives states; I am the Chairman of the Progressives Governors’ Forum, 20 governors; and we are unanimous in supporting President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to ensure that he succeeds in rescuing the economy, in rescuing this country, in making sure that we live according to the expectations of our founding fathers,”
“And I can tell you, seven months or eight months into his four years mandate is not enough to judge him. So, why the hurry? Some people are suffering from anxiety-cirrhosis. Some people are not able to come to terms with the reality on the ground.
“I am confident. I have my belief that if this man is not able to get this country correct, then something must be wrong.”
The governor, who blamed cabals for the socio-economic woes bedeviling the nation, said what Tinubu has done so far by removing subsidy on petrol and unifying the foreign exchange windows are the “passwords to entering the system”.
