Prominent Ibadan politician, Sen. Rashidi Ladoja, is in support of the decisions taken so far by the President Bola Tinubu-led Federal Government.
According to Ladoja, the tough decisions were taken “because we need to readjust and rejig Nigeria.”
Ladoja, who interacted with journalists on Wednesday, stated that aside subsidy removal and harmonization of exchange rates, he also supported the investigation of the Governor of Central Bank of Nigeria, Mr Godwin Emefiele, and the Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, Abdulrasheed Bawa.
He said everyone must be accountable to the people.
“I hope the APC will be strong enough to face the issues of cleansing the Augean stable. Emefiele ought to have been sacked from the time he made moves to contest the presidency,” Ladoja stated.
The former governor also expressed confidence that Tinubu understood how to create a liberal and competitive market considering his private sector background.
Ladoja also spoke on his relationship with Governor Seyi Makinde.
The Otun-Olubadan of Ibadanland said relationship with Makinde was very cordial.
He added that there was nothing like a clash of interests before, during and after the 2023 general elections.
