Economic hardship: Tinubu needs encouragement, not criticism, says Oyintiloye

Olatunbosun Oyintiloye, an All Progressives Congress (APC) chieftain in Osun State, urged Nigerians to support President Bola Tinubu despite the country’s economic hardship. He defended the removal of the petrol subsidy and the floating of the naira, saying the difficult reforms could yield positive results if properly implemented. Oyintiloye called on the government to strengthen social programmes and other measures to ease the burden on citizens, and urged opposition politicians not to weaponise the crisis ahead of the 2027 presidential election.
