National leader of the All
Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, said President Goodluck
Jonathan has admitted his alleged inability to continue to preside over the
affairs of the nation through his persistent excuses to Nigerians, therefore
insisted that the President should resign.He described
Governor Adams Oshiomhole as a man of honour and one capable of being the
President of Nigeria, asserting that Oshiomhole’s developmental strides in Edo
state is a pointer that the APC has credible people capable of leading the
nation. He declared this yesterday in Benin City, while commissioning the new
six lane New Lagos Road and the Ewohimi Hospital in Esan South East of Edo
State.The APC leader who also poured encomium on two-time former governor of
old Bendel state, Dr Samuel Ogbemudia who was at the event, asserted that the
former Governor is “one leader whose charity is always at home. You believe in
Edo state, you believe in your people, not politics of deception and sharing
the bounties of corruption. You believe in physical development and morality
and that is what we are seeing today in Edo”.Declaring that the Jonathan’s
administration is a failure, Asiwaju stated that “A nation fails because of the
leadership failures, if there is a good leader at the top, a nation will not
fail. Because the fish start getting rotten from the head. The poverty,
insecurity, unemployment which we are witnessing today in this country is
because the head has failed.“Let them stop giving us excuses that Boko Haram is
in my government, fish them out. That we have saboteurs in the military, you
are admitting failure. No excuse of failure, Mr President we chose you to lead
this country, resign if you cannot enough of the excuses” he
declared.Commending Oshiomhole for the infrastructural development, he notated
that “many people like you would have fell into the temptation of naira and
kobo. But you stood for the progress of Edo state. We share in common the
determination to make progress, you had the opportunity to be in labour party,
you had that option clearly, but you chose to be with the progressives that you
know
