Unfounded allegations against Tinubu's aides are distracting -- APC  Chieftain

A  prominent member of the governing All Progressive Congress APC in Nasarawa state,  Mohammed Agwai Mohammed, has  called on  detractors  officials in the Tinubu administration especially his Chief of Staff, Femi Gbajabiamila,  to spare  the government  time  to enable it  concentrate on the lofty job of helping the President to transform the nation positively.

 The  former member of the Governing Board of the Raw Materials Research and Development Council, RMRDC,  gave the advice  while querying the pull-him-down syndrome exhibited by some Nigerians.

Mohammed who holds the traditional title of Shettiman   Keffi, said “the task before the President is enormous and  requires decent and committed Nigerians  such as Gbajabiamila  among other highly  talented  Nigerians assembled to  help  change the fortunes of the nation for the good of all.”

Therefore,  he said Gbajabiamila deserves support and  not the regular attacks and criticism based on spurious and unproven allegations in sections of the media ecosystem.

 “In less than six months of the Tinubu administration, the nation is already witnessing changes as a result of friendly and well-conceived policy thrust fashioned by the present administration,” Mohammed said.

 “Those who never meant well for President Tinubu and his  cabinet especially the person of the Chief of staff should have a rethink and allow peace to reign. We need the likes of Gbajabiamila who have good intentions to  contribute positively to change the narrative and provide for Nigerians who have long been  subjected to  suffering, poverty and hunger over the  years, to benefit from the Tinubu administration.

“President  Tinubu is in a  hurry to do things differently.  so, the support of everybody  is required to achieve the set goal of this administration.

 “We are in the era where the President will always want things done rightly. So, it behoves on all of us irrespective of religion, ethnic and political inclinations  to key into the leadership direction by ensuring that we jointly support the administration in all ways possible,” he charged.

The Keffi based apolitician who holds the traditional title of Shettiman Keffi, told  Journalists in Lafia  that the Chief of Staff had proven his mettle as a leader of men and resources.

“I challenge Gbajabiamila’s  detractors to desist from making unproven allegations, asking “Where were those criticising the Chief of Staff whe he  held down the National Assembly for Tinubu even before he became President?”

He called on peddlers of rumours against the Chief of staff to “rise against destructive criticism and forge a common front for good governance in our dear country and expressed the  hope that Nigeria, under the leadership of President Tinubu, will witness better days.

The renowned politician called on the government to stay focused  urging the  officials to be resolutely, you determined in their quest to provide the desired dividends of democracy for the people.
