Only Tinubu, His People Have Been Transformed – Dalung Blasts Presidency

Former Minister of Youth and Sports, Solomon Dalung, has stated that ordinary Nigerians are not benefiting from President Bola Tinubu’s economic reforms.

He asserted that only those in government seem to be enjoying the nation.

“The only people from 2023 to now that have been transformed are Tinubu and people in his government,” he said.

Naija News reports that he made the remarks while speaking with Seun Okinbaloye on the current state of the nation.

He asserted that the worsening insecurity and economic hardship in the country could affect Tinubu’s chances of re-election if not urgently addressed.

Dalung lamented that many Nigerians are increasingly frustrated by rising insecurity, unemployment, and economic difficulties.

He argued that these challenges remain the major concerns of voters ahead of future elections.

“The main offence that Tinubu would have said to have committed in the eyes of voters would be insecurity,” he said.

He added that economic hardship and alleged mismanagement of the economy were also key issues affecting public perception of the government.

“Insecurity, untold hardship, mismanagement of the economy, corruption, unemployment,” he said.

According to him, the situation reflects widespread frustration among citizens, who he said are struggling under current economic conditions.

He also expressed concern about rising tensions in parts of the Southwest, particularly in Ibadan, warning that the government should not ignore such developments.

“Have you ever imagined what is happening in the Southwest? Where in Ibadan… you could hear women coming out shouting ‘ole, ole,’” he said.

“Those things happening in Ibadan, government should not ignore it. Because it is going to take us through the same political path we have been in our history,” he cautioned.
