Akande Critiques Tinubu's Choice of Advisors on TV

Laolu Akande, who served as the media aide to former Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, publicly criticized President Bola Tinubu during an appearance on Channel Television's Sunrise program. Akande claimed that Tinubu has surrounded himself with "second-class" and "third-class" individuals, which he believes has resulted in inadequate counsel for the President.

He stated that this poor choice of advisors has contributed to the ongoing issues facing the country, particularly in terms of security and governance. Akande emphasized that the President is not receiving the necessary guidance to tackle significant problems effectively.

He also mentioned that the current administration's approach to crime and justice is flawed, suggesting that the President should not be surrounded by individuals who do not provide the right counsel. Akande's remarks reflect a broader concern regarding the leadership and decision-making within the current government.
