“Tinubu did not promise Nigerians overnight solution, miracles” ― Oshiomhole

"Tinubu did not promise Nigerians overnight solution, miracles" ― Oshiomhole

Adams Oshiomhole, former Governor of Edo state has asked Nigerians to be patient with President Bola Tinubu’s government, as he is still working out solutions to Nigeria’s problem. Oshiomhole in a live interview on Channels Television, said Tinubu is not a “magician” that will solve the country’s problems in one fell swoop.

"Tinubu did not promise Nigerians overnight solution, miracles" ― Oshiomhole

Senator Adams Oshiomhole The Senator representing Edo North said; “They know they were not electing a magician. And nobody promised a magical solution. You don’t need to give me an example. I know what we (APC) promised more than you who were reporting it. Whatever you reported, we were the source. We did not promise a 24-hour solution. We did not promise miracles. We did not promise an overnight solution. “You show me any document that says in 48 hours, this will be done. In 14 days, this should be done. In 21 days, this should be done. “I think you are the one who has the illusion that once a promise is made, automatically once you get into office, either spiritually or by miracles, solutions will emerge.” Also, Oshiomhole kicked against the N30,000 monthly minimum wage which he described as a “criminal wage”, stating that his cleaner earns over N60,000 monthly. Oshiomhole stated this in an interview on Channels Television Sunday night, July 23, stating that the average responsible private-sector employer is a better employer than the Federal Government or state government. He said; “What we call minimum wage is a criminal wage. If you exchange N30,000 at N800 or N700 to the dollar, what does that translate to? So, the value of that minimum wage when it was N125 – when it was first introduced under, I think, (Shehu) Shagari’s government – is about two times or three times the value many years later, even in the public service. “I can tell you what I have decided to pay my cleaner. My cleaner is just a primary school – I’m not sure she has even a school leaving certificate. But she’s knowledgeable enough to clean the house. “I found myself unable to pay her less than N60,000 – in fact, N60,000. It’s about my conscience. I’m trying to imagine what she has to pay for a house. She told me she has four children. “I’m trying to imagine how she has to look after those children and I cannot question why she should have four children.”

“My children and I voted for Tinubu but we’re not getting what we voted for”

"My children and I voted for Tinubu but we're not getting what we voted for," ― Man laments hardship amidst petrol increase

Adamu Salihu, a businessman who resides in Kano state has lamented the hardship being faced by Nigerians following the increase in the pump price of petrol, stating that it is not what he and his family members expected to happen when they voted for the Tinubu-led government. NigezieXtreme reports that the price of fuel which moved from N195 per litre to N530 after President Bola Tinubu announced the end of subsidy in his inauguration speech on May 29, hit N617 in Abuja and N620 in Kano, and some other states like Rivers N650 in the early hours of Tuesday, July 18.

Adamu Salihu Reacting to the recent development, Salihu, who said he hails from Bichi LGA in the State, said he might be forced to take to crime. Speaking to DailyTrust, he said; “Honestly this new price has hit us very hard. This is not what we voted for. My children and I voted for the current government in power. What we are being served is contrary to what we asked for. I am a Nigerian, I deserve to be treated right. I am no longer a youth, I have Children and they also go out and vote. Very soon if there is no change, I will ask them to stop voting because they are no longer going to school and have started hawking selling ‘Awara’. “I dropped them out of school and they are now selling ‘Awara’. How can they be denied education and start hawking? I have been in politics since the time of NRC and SDP. If things continue to go like this, we can retaliate. if our lawmakers and representatives will not do anything about it. We can take the law into our hands despite being law abiding citizens. “All these hardship we are facing is as a result of hike in fuel price, if not, we won’t be suffering like this. We don’t have good representation.”
