Dominic Adeosun, the vicar general of the Catholic Diocese of Ondo State, has commended President Bola Tinubu ”for his strength, determination, and efforts to steer Nigeria in the right direction.”
Speaking to journalists in Akure on Tuesday, Adeosun urged Nigerians to support the president ”as he grapples with the country’s security and economic challenges.”
Acknowledging the severity of the situation in Nigeria, Adeosun stated that reversing the decadence in the polity would take time and concerted effort.
He said: “We expect a lot from him, but, like I said before, he cannot just do it one day or overnight. He’s a human being.
“Let us keep praying for him. I think he had good intentions for the country. We expect a lot from him, but, like I said before, he cannot just do it one day or overnight. He’s a human being.”
The cleric urged the president to make policies that could alleviate the unreasonably high cost of goods and services in the country.
He further said that with the unflinching support of Nigerians, the president would make the country a dream of expectation.
“He had been preparing to become president for a long time, unlike those who came before him who were lords over us.
“He needs the cooperation of Nigerians, our understanding and more patience.
“We should not allow some people that are ready to sabotage the efforts of the administration,” he said.
