Why Nigerians should give Tinubu’s presidency a chance

President Bola Tinubu

SIR: I understand that there may be some questioning my endorsement of President Bola Tinubu, especially in light of the complaints surrounding the ongoing restructuring efforts. However, in this pivotal moment, I urge my fellow Nigerians to exercise patience and maintain hope for the future under Tinubu’s leadership.

It is natural for there to be challenges and adjustments during a period of restructuring, but I firmly believe that these efforts are laying the foundation for long-term progress and prosperity. Let us trust in Tinubu’s vision and steadfast commitment to the nation, remaining optimistic that the dividends of these efforts will soon become evident to all.

It is important to remember that change takes time, and the transformation of a nation is not an easy feat. Tinubu, with his extensive experience and leadership, has the vision, dedication, and capability to deliver on his renewed mandate agenda, steering the nation towards prosperity and progress.

As we navigate through this period of change, it’s essential to maintain faith and confidence in the leadership, knowing that the President’s commitment to serving the nation is unwavering. It may take time, but I am firmly convinced that tangible benefits and the dividends of democracy will soon materialise under Tinubu’s capable leadership, benefiting all Nigerians.

While there have been concerns and criticisms surrounding the initial phases of his presidency, it’s crucial to recognise that Tinubu has only been in office for a relatively short period. It’s premature to pass judgment on his ability to effect change and deliver on his promises. As we move forward, it’s important to give the President the time and space needed to implement his policies and initiatives, allowing for a fair and comprehensive assessment of his leadership.


Let us collectively strive towards a shared vision of progress and development, supporting the President in his efforts to address the challenges facing our country and to bring about positive transformation. With a unified purpose and determination, we can contribute to the realisation of a more vibrant and thriving nation for generations to come.

The Renewed Hope Agenda, for which many of us fought passionately, will come to fruition if we stand by our President and give him the opportunity to lead us towards a better tomorrow. We must remain steadfast in our support and trust in the vision outlined in the Renewed Hope Agenda. By standing together, unified in our determination, we can empower our President to steer the nation toward a future marked by progress, opportunity, and prosperity. It is through our collective commitment and perseverance that we can pave the way for the realisation of the agenda’s transformative promises. Let us reaffirm our dedication to this common cause and work in harmony with Tinubu to build a nation that fulfils the aspirations of all its citizens.
