Otunba Gbenga Daniel Defends Tinubu's Economic Reforms

In an interview, Otunba Gbenga Daniel, the former governor of Ogun State and senator representing Ogun East, defended President Bola Tinubu's economic reforms, asserting that not many leaders have taken decisive actions like Tinubu. He evaluated the leadership of Dapo Abiodun and discussed the developmental challenges faced by Ogun State compared to Lagos.

Daniel criticized past leaders, including Ayo Adebanjo and Abraham Adesanya, for not achieving commensurate development in Ogun State. He expressed excitement about the potential turnaround in the state and emphasized the importance of focusing on rural legislation and healthcare.

Daniel highlighted Tinubu's intelligence and boldness in addressing economic issues, particularly the removal of fuel subsidies, which he believes is essential for Nigeria's economic rediscovery. He acknowledged the challenges faced by the poor due to subsidy removals but noted gradual improvements in the economy over the past year.
