Seyi Law gives reason for defending Tinubu

In his lengthy statement, he noted that he would rather "stay with Moses through the wilderness to Canaan than eat meat and drink wine in slavery in Egypt."

He spoke about many Nigerians trying to kill the optimism of others by looking for every possibility to paint the country's condition as dark and gloomy even though there's still much to be hopeful about.

Seyi Law noted in his post that the people who are supposed to carry the bulk of the blame for the country's current state are state governors who have become redundant.
