A call for continued forthrightness
Adeyanju urged Ndume to maintain his position and continue advocating for the truth.
Adeyanju said:
“At a time when many have succumbed to the lure of praise and sycophancy, Senator Ndume’s commitment to speaking truth to power is commendable. His forthrightness serves as a beacon for others in leadership positions.”
Advising government and leaders
The activist also called on the Tinubu-led government and political leaders to view Ndume not as an adversary but as a voice of reason.
He asserted:
“It is crucial for the government and political leaders to distinguish between genuine critique and the empty flattery of sycophants.
