Aare Ona Kakanfo of Yorubaland, Iba Gani Abiodun Adams , has voiced out his frustration with President Bola Tinubu, saying the President has disappointed many Nigerians who brought him to power.

He criticized the President’s handling of the petroleum sector especially the recent hike in price of motor spirit (PMS) otherwise known as petrol, saying the situation is worsening the hardship in the land.

He asked the president to reverse what he called, “the ugly trend,” saying the time is going.

In an open letter to Tinubu, Adams said, “When you came with the ‘Emilokan’ coinage in the build up to the 2023 elections, many Nigerians were persuaded that as a democrat exposed to modern way of governance, you will perform better than Muhammadu Buhari, a soldier who deepened the poverty levels of Nigerians and increased insecurity from 2015 to 2023.

“Today, events have proved that they were wrong. Mr. President, to say the truth without minding whose ox is gored, you have really disappointed many Nigerians who thought you were the messiah they were waiting for.”

He said the increase in price of fuel which was less than N200 when the President took over, now selling over N1000 has shown that the istration is insensitive to the plight of Nigerians.

“Obviously, your istration is becoming indifferent, insensitive and unresponsive to the plights of millions of Nigerians who can no longer meet their daily needs. This is a brutal assault on the sensibility of Nigerians.

“I think you and your party should be sensitive to the plights of Nigerians. Mr. President, don’t you think the wicked and draconian increase in fuel price, especially, at this time that Nigerians have been pushed to the wall, is a huge recipe for crisis? Nigerians can no longer bear this economic hardship any longer.

“I am writing this letter to you because of the pressure I am going through from millions of Nigerians, who erroneously, believe that I don’t want to tell you the truth because the two of us are eminent Yoruba citizens.

The truth is that the perverted, opaque, unintelligible, wicked and corrupt handling of the petroleum sector and continuous increase of fuel price under your istration (with the NNPC threatening us the price will still go up) without due regard to the laws of the land and wellbeing of Nigerians is akin to telling Nigerians to go to hell.

“Mr. President, if a few of your advisers are telling you that all is well, I can confidently inform you that they are your enemies.”

He said the economic situation has worsened with the increase in fuel price and the rise in foreign exchange.

“Today, it (fuel) is more than N1000. As the Minister of Petroleum, I ask you, what type of reforms is this?
In May 2023, Naira to a Dollar was less than N740. Today, it is more than N1,600.

“Now, your two right-hand men when you were Governor of Lagos State between 1999 and 2007, Wale Edun (Finance Minister) and Yemi Cardoso (CBN Governor) are in charge of the economy.

“What exactly are the fiscal, economic and financial briefings they give you daily to convince you that they know what they are doing in those two offices? When Buhari left on May 29, 2023, many Nigerians heaved a sigh of relief that insecurity would soon become history.

“Pitiably today, from the North to the South, East to the West, the rate at which Nigerians are being abducted and some killed, even after ransom was paid, it was as if these blood-thirsty maniacs have just been unleashed on Nigerians from the hottest part of hell.”

The Yoruba generallisimo likened the President’s istration to the Adolf Hitler’s dictatorial era in Nazi , saying, “In just 16 months into your istration, your campaign promises have suddenly become failed promises?

“Your Excellency, do you an Austrian-German who became the Commander-in-Chief in in 1933? Adolf Hitler was an Austrian-born German politician who was the dictator of Nazi from 1933 until his suicide in 1945?

“Hitler, an elected democrat, quickly transformed a democratic republic into a constitutional dictatorship.

“The Fuhrer vowed to destroy democracy through the democratic process. And he did with the destruction of in 1945.

“Before the destruction, the Nazi leader disabled, then dismantled the Weimar Republic. The Fuhrer crushed political opposition, destroyed the economy and ultimately undermined ’s democratic structures.

“When Hitler became history on April 30, 1945, was in total ruins. But due to the determination of Germans, today, that country has the biggest economy in Europe.

“I hope I am wrong but I see a linkage between what happened during the ascendancy of Hitler into power and what is happening in Nigeria today.”

He only disappointed tribal bigots, not sane and detribalized Nigerians. We already knew he will fail woefully and we shouted from the rooftops but they didn't listen. What Tinubu cannot destroy does not exist.

Before nko?

Rest

As if you know a better candidate

4 out of your 5 state GOVS still pay 18k minimum wage in 2024

Na una wey dem wan follow be that?

First, Tinubu was never and will never be a democrat

Tinubu is a notorious narcotics drug trafficker, certificate forger, and buccaneering power grabber engaging in criminal state capture.

How such an individual with such despicable character suddenly became some sort of messiah to some people is what I am yet to come to with. Like, how do you expect an individual who held Lagos State hostage for over two decades, milking and syphoning its entire commonwealth, to suddenly become a messiah? Nah!

No one grabs, snatches, and runs away with power and uses it for the good of the people. None

COMRADES are speechless, Nigeria no be Lagos State, so, Tinubu should get out and hide his face in shame

He has thrown the gauntlet and I doubt if Tinubu will respond to him. If he does, he will be in serious trouble for taking on an Aare Onakakanfo of Yorubaland.

May God bless Nigeria for ever!

Nobody steals power to take good care of his victims,I never expected anything good from Tinubu.

Under this government of APC & Tinubu, there doesn't seem to be any respite for the poor and those outside government. It's been a daily dosage of one hardship to another. Always asking the masses to tighten their belts for a more difficult times while Tinubu as the President and other political jobbers loosen theirs. Imagine, a man whose survival has been at the mercy of government since 1999, free food, free accommodation, free electricity, free cars,free fuel, free allowances, free clothing, free security, free medicals, free holidays etc and he still feels unsatisfied with all that due to greed! ₦21 billion for the renovation of the VP residence, a new Tokunboh Airbus as his toy, senseless sponsorship of Hajj as if that will guarantee him age to heaven while the best he could do for our students was to guarantee them student's loans.
Imagine meeting PMS at ₦185:00 and within 16 months decided to unleash hell on the larger populace. The Naira is now ₦165:00 to the US🇺🇸 Dollars and some miserable people still keep praising him to high heavens.

Ok

EMILOKAN in the mud!!.....Gani finally has ed the wailers band!....The band keeps gaining new ....

See as tinubu take carry both Eweduans and Agbadorians handicap!!....

Pulled a fast one on them....Dem no still believe wetin really transpired!

I used to see him as savior but now....



Otilo.


What I like about Yorubas, if their brother do good they will him and if he do bad they will be the first to castrate him, I've seen many pro Yorubas condemning Tinubu pattern of ruling unlike other tribes that when you talk against their leaders they'll insult you from head to toes or tags you as tribals bigots.

It is still morning and a lot of people are crying, I wonder what will happen at the twilight of this Tinubulation

He only dissapointed the dumbos that believed a man whose slogan was emilokan - it is my turn , has his primary goal as improving the lives of the people.

Tinubu is working. Give him 8 years

Gani Adams don turn to Gani Ire

Just dey play 😂

Nobody is too big to be disciplined by the government.

Be you Emir, Sultan or Ooni, talkless of a ceremonial title holder like Gain.

I like the way Iba put it...those who saw you as messiah

We warned about this disaster, but sad west Media and dummies ed him, now see the outcome

Him no send anybody papa

Tinubu is a disappointment to those people who saw him as a messiah except the paid bigots on nairaland.

2027 otilo unless Nigeria citizens remain sick, we warned you guys against apc government and their hell candidate

Nigerian Govt need to go into weed export.. so dat dey can use the money to subsidized fuel

Lol it's only you that believed in him

I dont know why people expected so much from this government. A candidate who couldn't come out to tell us what he would do? Ran away from every debate.
A candidate that was licking the microphone on stage when asked to test it? A candidate with irregularities around him? His cronies have all been accused of one financial fraud or the other. A candidate who his henchmen clearly polarise our unity.

And we expect anything good from him.

Toor badamua!
