Nigerians should not expect much Regarding Performance Of Tinubu – Garba Shehu
Garba Shehu, a former presidential aide, has urged Nigerians to moderate their expectations regarding the performance of President Bola Tinubu and other political leaders in office.
Shehu, who previously served as President Muhammadu Buhari’s media aide, made this statement during the 21st Daily Trust Annual Dialogue organized by Trust Media Group on Thursday in Abuja.
“President Muhammadu Buhari is a victim of crisis of expectations. And I think that the lesson for Nigerians from what I saw during the Buhari period and even Tinubu is, Nigerians should begin to lower their expectations on political leaders.
“This is because these expectations are simply inhuman. Leaders can do a lot of things, but no leader can do everything. During the time of Buhari, travellers to the Eastern Region used to spend about three days on the road, but after massive investment in infrastructure by Buhari, the travel time has reduced to about six hours.
“The government then also banned the importation of rice. After that, our farmers became so productive that production of rice skyrocketed and we were even feeding the whole of West Africa,” Mr Shehu said.
