Atiku's Aide Critiques Tinubu's Governance Approach

Demola Olarewaju, the Senior Political Assistant to Atiku Abubakar, the presidential candidate of the African Democratic Congress, accused President Bola Tinubu of engaging in "wickedness" instead of focusing on governance since he assumed office in 2023. Olarewaju's remarks came after Dele Alake, the Minister of Solid Minerals Development, defended Tinubu's decision to limit his campaign activities to select states, stating that the President prioritized governance over campaigning.

Alake noted that the chosen states are crucial for elections and that Tinubu should be commended for his approach. In response, Olarewaju criticized Tinubu for allegedly not having any achievements to campaign on and accused him of being preoccupied with political maneuvering to secure support from state governors for his re-election bid in 2027.

He expressed his views on social media, stating that Tinubu has been engaged in politics and "wickedness" instead of good governance.
