You failed as Governor & Minister – Presidency slams Aregbesola for attacking Tinubu
The Special Adviser to President Bola Tinubu on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, has slammed the African Democratic Congress, ADC, as a gathering of “desperate politicians” without a clear national agenda.
Onanuga spoke while reacting to ADC chieftain Rauf Aregbesola’s criticism of Tinubu’s government during the party’s National Convention in Abuja on Tuesday.
Recall that the National Secretary of the ADC, Aregbesola, described the APC-led administration’s Renewed Hope Agenda as a “classic scam”.
Reacting to this in a post via his X handle, Onanuga wrote “No, Rauf. The real scammers are the politicians inside the SPV called ADC.”
He said; “At the event, Aregbesola reportedly called on his former boss, mentor, and benefactor to resign, parroting the opposition’s warped narratives about the economy and orchestrated reports of terrorist attacks in some parts of the country.”
He also criticised Aregbesola for what he described as a refusal to reflect on his own time in public office.
“His eight years as governor of Osun State were characterised by unmitigated hardship for the people civil servants went unpaid for months, and pensioners suffered greatly.”
Speaking on Aregbesola tenure as Minister of Interior, Onanuga said, “During his four years, obtaining a Nigerian passport became a nightmarish process, and there were multiple jailbreaks, including the infamous Kuje prison escape.”
He argued that it was “ironic” for Aregbesola to now speak on insecurity, saying, “For someone who failed so woefully to secure our correctional centres. it is ironic that Aregbesola now seeks to lecture others on insecurity.”
“The Renewed Hope Agenda is not a scam,” Onanuga insisted.
