According to the report from the Sun, a public affairs analyst and Convener of the Reset Lagos Peoples Democratic Party, Dr. Adetokunbo Pearse is highly critical of the current government’s approach to governance, citing examples of waste, over-bloated bureaucracy, and the excessive number of ministers. He also points to the Betta Edu case as an example of corruption and suggests that President Tinubu is using his appointments to satisfy personal ambitions rather than working for the good of the nation.
He said,
“In the area of governance, we have waste, over-bloated bureaucracy; we have the highest number of ministers we ever had. They are giving themselves money every day. They are going to fix the vice president’s house for N500 billion – all sorts of waste of money.
The president is just appointing people every day and they all have to be paid. You have too much corruption; you have the Betta Edu case, which is a drop in the ocean.
Corruption is from head to toe. You have a waste of money and waste of resources and you are appointing people who have failed in their various governments in the past just to pay back these people.
He is using his appointment to satisfy his own personal ambitions at the expense of the nation. In all three areas – security, economy, and governance, it is zero.”
