Give Tinubu Time To Achieve Results – Gowon Urges Nigerians

The former Military leader said it is too early to deliver a final verdict on the Tinubu-led government.

Former Head of State, Gen. Yakubu Gowon (rtd), has urged Nigerians to give President Bola Ahmed Tinubu time to fix the worsening economic crisis in the country.

He also cautioned Nigerians against rushing to judge the performance of the President.

He made the call while speaking to State House correspondents after meeting with President Tinubu at the Presidential Villa, Abuja on Wednesday, February 21. The former Military leader said it is too early to deliver a final verdict on the Tinubu-led government.

‘’Well, I was telling him that no Nigerian leader can get there and will not have all the report of what is being said about him. But certainly, there’s no doubt from what one hears and what one sees on the various media, etc. I think the government is trying their best to deal with the various problems of the country. Don’t you worry you will get criticised, but people who get there know better than you know. I think all what one can say is that Nigerians, we’ve got to give the president time. And it is too early to sort of say absolute result, perfect result will be achieved now. That is my opinion. I know and if I can remember, when I was fighting the war, I was told I was too slow and that probably Nigeria cannot make it and that we should now seek for discussion.

Well, did we do it or not? They probably do not know the problem underground, so that is where we are.”
