A former presidential Special Adviser on Political Matters, Babafemi Ojudu, has said President Bola Tinubu is not the right man to rule Nigeria at this point in time

Ojudu said having worked closely with Tinubu in the past, he feels his philosophy does not put him in the best position to be Nigeria’s current president.

He disclosed this while featuring on Edmund Obilo’s podcast ‘State Affairs’ on Monday evening.

The former presidential aide also described former Vice president Yemi Osinbajo as ‘a visionary’.

According to Ojudu, Osinbajo would have taken Nigeria to greater heights.

He said: “This country would have gone places with him if he had the opportunity but it didn’t happen

"I’m not Emi Lokan, I feel that having worked and related closely with the principal of Emi Lokan and worked at the National Assembly and presidency myself, I just feel that the philosophy of Emi Lokan was not appropriate at this time.

“Osinbajo was the best person to govern Nigeria at that time having seen him up close.

“Osinbajo is a visionary and let me tell you this, whoever is going to run this country successfully must not be an individual, he must be one person working within a group of people who have the same vision as him.


"You can’t just be a president and have a useless Inspector General of Police, have a useless head of Customs or Immigration or Chief Justice of Nigeria, everybody must sign on to your ideals, ideas, and visions.”

Osinbajo failed woefully because of advisers like Babafemi Ojudu. Osinbajo that could not win ordinary party primaries, na him wan win presidency? Had APC fielded Osinbanjo in 2023, Atiku would be president now.

Nigerians have accepted their reality

Nigerians are living in reality now.

Mchewww

I listened to this particular radio interview, truth be told, I initially ed osinbajo even though it don't like APC, but he wasn't the choice of APC

The only thing Tinubu wanted is to be president; ambition.


And ambition is not always selfless.

See how myopic you are?
I sincerely feel for you if you're judging Osinbajo's competence on the basis of not been able to win APC primaries. Do u know how primaries are conducted at all? You obviously do not understand politics of Nigeria

Oga, in a free and fair contest, ATIKU won't beat Osinbajo.

Even a goat or a ram in the market knows that Tinubu is a calamity

We hear

Kai..

Kinda hard to assess pa Tinubu...

He seem to be giving Nigerians one thing with one had, and using another hand to collect three times what he gave.

how did osinbajo fail?

will Atiku being president not have been better than tinubu being president?

Mumu man. Election sore loser.

Tinubu is far better than all the past president combined

Ok

Every man with his opinion.

He has only said his opinion, which he is entitled to.
Somebody else may have a different opinion and that wouldn't necessarily invalidate Ojudu's

At last, all of them are political jobbers,either pained not to be on the 'corridor' again or currying favour to be invited to the 'corridor '

The fact that Osinbajo lost the APC ticket to Tinubu while being VP and having some sort of Aso rock backing say a lot.

He's a lightweight who can't rule Nigeria.

Nigeria is a very tough country to rule.

He's very right.
The country wouldn't have been in this sorry state if Osibanjo was the president.
However he is very weak and simply a stooge and puppet being controlled by the drug baron himself

Stop typing with the aid of your Anus Brain.

Wining ordinary Party Primaries is Inducements.

It's not about Politics of Inducements we are Talking about its about Politics of Transparency

Nigeria is a very tough country to rule.

What elites in a normal country will do is to back that so-called lightweight because they put country first, not personal selfish interests.

I don't any of these guys but as woeful as Buhari's performance was, an Osinbajo was better to replace him. You talk as if Osinbajo wasn't acting President for a few days and the body language Lai Muhammed waa claiming his principal had, it took an acting Sheriff in town to show us. The rest is history and we know why the lightweight was never given power again by the heavyweights who had nothing to offer but their weight.
Nigerians still have the Stockholm syndrome with military rule, that's why they need a BDSM partner to put them in order.


everything is not grab and run away with it. You can't give what you don't have. Tinubu cannot inspire Nigerians, no matter how they paint it. Yes, he is a Good politician, strategic and all that but e get why IBB house be like Mecca for aspirants. Sometimes, you need to take the backseat. Put country first. Everything in leadership is not force, sometimes your words alone will inspire people. Had they given Osinbajo the ticket, Obi wouldn't have had the number of votes neither would Atiku.

Ojodu is jobless, disgruntled and bitter. I thought he said he would leave for his father's farm in Ekiti and stay away from anything that has to do with Nigeria, if Asiwaju was declared President. So he's not a man of his words

I daresay the bloke is suffering from haemorrhagic Buharitophilia, one of the contagious infections resulting from working for Buhari.

🤣🤣😂😂😅😅😂😂

Coming from one of those who was chosen by
Emilokan to manage president BUBU
But got there to attend to their pockets
No be only him one sha
Aregbe follow
Lai follow
Kayode follow and so many more
But who won last last
EMILOKAN....
Betrayal has a shorter life span.

The man na ipob

If this tax reform bill is ed and the refineries working, plus Fuel price goes back to were it was, I'll pick Tinubu over osinbande

you're very dumb and stupid.
We're talking of visionary qualities of a leader that will pull Nigeria through you're here talking offpoint.
Useless dunce

Nigerians themselves are problems to their country, No president has never done well when in power in the eyes of ordinary Nigerian s.

So nobody should come and tell us one man is better than the others. When Buhari was losing elections year in year out we thought he will be the president we never had untill they gave him the baton, the mumu wasted more than half of a year to constitute cabinet, saw presidency as a gift to his cronies , couldn't attract FDI, borrow borrow until China said enough, building useless railway tracks , crippled the economy.

The same person that criticized those previous governments day and night.

At the end he said he has done his best.
