A former governor of Ogun state and the senator representing Ogun Central senatorial district, Ibikunle Amosun has paid a glowing tribute to President Muhammadu Buhari, adding that he has done more good for the country and will leave office a hero.
Senator Amosun, who attributed bad leadership as the major problem confronting Nigeria, also lauded the president for being fair to Nigerians.
Juxtaposing the six years administration of the APC with the sixteen years rule of the PDP at the 2021 Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ) Oyo Council in Ibadan, the former governor noted that Nigeria has fared well under the leadership of President Buhari’s six years reign and the progress is visible for all to see.
He posited that the current issues confronting the country, most especially insecurity, were as a result of the sixteen years misrule of the PDP, urging Nigerians to support President Buhari as he continued to battle the many problems facing the nation.
“Agriculture and infrastructure have been the major focus of the Buhari’s administration. The farmers have obtained more friendly loan packages than before. Nigeria rail system was regarded as the worst in Africa before the Buhari’s emergence in 2015. Buhari has initiated, completed and delivered remarkable major rail netwroks and Nigeria now has the best rail system in West Africa with thousands of jobs created”.
He added that, “President Muhammadu Buhari has done so much good for the nation and when he leaves office in 2023, he would have done more good for the nation than any other government before him”.
Amosun, who was represented by Barrister Taiwo Adeoluwa at the event was also honoured with an award of excellence as the Nation’s BridgeBuilder and Icon of Progressive Bloc by the Union.
The award was presented by Dr. (Mrs) Florence Ajimobi, the wife of former governor of Oyo State, late Senator Abiola Ajimobi for his progressive ingenuity, friendly administrative policies and expanding cooperation among the APC chieftains across the country.
Senator Amosun’s team, who attended the event included, Professor Adeolu Akande (Chairman, Nigeria Communications Commission) who was also the Chairman of the occasion, Alh. Bola Adeyemi, Chief Wole Elegbede, Hon. Raheem Ajayi Baglo, Dr. Oye; among others.
