Tinubu will fix Buhari government's weaknesses - Auda

However, the APC bigwig boasted that Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu will fix issues that need urgent attention in the country and make up for aspects of weaknesses in the current administration.

He stated that despite the failings in some policies of this government, the Buhari-led federal government has recorded some obvious successes in terms of COVID-19 management and recovery from economic recession.

His words:

“We came together as a party to fight certain things at the beginning.
