Ayodele Fayose says President Tinubu deserves praise for stabilising Nigeria’s economy and urges more support, even as he admits the PDP is “in trouble.”
- Fayose called his visit to Tinubu “personal,” meant to show encouragement.
- Praised Tinubu’s “courageous steps” on the economy, despite no “overnight miracles.”
- Rejected defection rumours: “I’ll never join APC.”
- Warned that the PDP risks becoming a “carcass” if internal issues persist.
- Says he no longer plays a frontline political role but supports positive leadership.
In a political moment that blurs party lines, Fayose’s public support for President Tinubu shows the growing cracks in opposition unity. His words carry the weight of a seasoned insider, both as a former PDP governor and a long-time political combatant. But even as he distances himself from active frontline politics, his critique of the PDP’s failings rings loud. This isn’t just about respect for Tinubu, it’s a warning shot for a party losing its grip.
Will other PDP stalwarts follow Fayose’s path of “constructive encouragement” , or is this a sign of deeper political realignment ahead of 2027?
