President Bola Ahmed Tinubu encouraged Nigerians dissatisfied with his government to consider voting him out in the 2027 presidential election, according to Oba Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi, the Ooni of Ife.
The Ooni of Ife stated that in light of the hardship demonstrations scheduled for August 1–10, 2024, President Tinubu made this statement on Thursday during an emergency meeting with Traditional Rulers chaired by the Sultan of Sokoto, His Eminence, Muhammad Sa’ad Abubakar III.
Ooni of Ife pointed out that Tinubu reiterated his determination to put an end to the nation’s economic suffering while urging communication.
The Ooni of Ife said:
“The President has said, ‘Any leader that you don’t like, wait (until 2027) and vote him out.’ He is open to dialogue. We know that Nigeria faces many challenges. But are we going to destroy our nation by ourselves? Is that what we are all after?
“It is very difficult to build, but it is the easiest to destroy. We are all stakeholders in this country and are stronger as a nation than individually.”
