According to Sam Amadi, the director of the Abuja School of Social and Political Thoughts, President Bola Tinubu does not merit the support of the opposition.
On Tuesday, Amadi made this claim on his Twitter page, claiming that the former governor of Lagos State should be opposed now that he is the president of Nigeria because he previously spent 16 years in the opposition and was critical of the then-ruling party.
“The work of the opposition party is not to support the government. It is to oppose the government and put it on its toes.
President Tinubu’s Meeting With Opposition Reps-Elect Moved To Thursday
“For 16 years he didn’t support the ruling government. He opposed it. Now he needs the opposition to oppose him, not support him. Let’s see,” Amadi wrote on the microblogging platform.
Newsmen believes that Amadi’s tweet was sent at the same time as the Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC) decided against the planned statewide strike for this Wednesday.
Recall that the labor union had suggested going on strike in protest of President Tinubu’s elimination of the fuel subsidy after his inauguration on May 29.
The planned strike was canceled following numerous consultations between NLC representatives and Federal Government officials.
However, Amadi warned the opposition against backing Tinubu’s government.
