Senator Adams Oshiomhole said President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has no magic wand to solve the myriad of problems confronting the country in no time.
The former Edo State governor declared this on Sunday night on Channels Television’s Politics Today where he contradicted any suggestion that the ruling All Progressives Congress and Tinubu during electioneering promised to take Nigeria out of the hood quickly.
“They know they were not electing a magician. And nobody promised a magical solution. Don’t bother giving me an example. I know what we (APC) promised more than you. Whatever is reported, we are the source. We did not promise anyone a 24-hour solution and we did not promise an overnight solution. Can you show me any document where we said in 24 hours, this will be done?
“I think you are the ones who have the illusion that once a promise is made, automatically once he (Tinubu) gets into office, either spiritually or by miracles, solutions will emerge. What Nigerians need is what the president has demonstrated – the courage to take the decision, humility to admit some of the unintended consequences of those decisions, and, of course, the will to deal with those consequences,” the former Labour leader said.
