Ayodele rates Tinubu's performance in two years

In a statement signed by his media aide, Osho Oluwatosin, Primate Ayodele stated that the president has done better than Buhari within two years of his administration, particularly in terms of economy, food items, insecurity, and infrastructure.

However, he also noted that there were some areas that he hadn’t done so well, The Nigerian Tribune reported.

“What I am seeing at this moment is that it is going to be a very serious time for the president. He has done better than Buhari in terms of economy, food items, energy, insecurity, infrastructure, notwithstanding, he hasn’t done so well in some areas too, especially youth empowerment.”
“His legacy highways are important projects that will help the country’s economic outlook. If any of the opposition candidates are there, they may not have gotten it better like Tinubu has in two years.”
