Tinubu is very wealthy, can loot Nigeria’s treasury – Minister
The Minister of State for Youth Development, Ayodele Olawande, has praised President Bola Tinubu as a symbol of wealth who has no intention of looting Nigeria’s resources.
Olawande made this statement during the Joint Union Negotiating Council’s week event at the Federal Ministry of Youth Development in Abuja.
The minister urged Nigerians to be patient with President Tinubu, assuring them that significant positive changes would soon be evident in the country.
He said, “I urge you to be patient with this administration. In no distant time, the country will take good shape and the lives of the citizens will be transformed.
“President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is not a pauper; he is an acknowledged epitome of wealth and so it cannot be said of him that he desires to loot the treasury of Nigeria.”
Olawande continued, “He has seen money and as a result of this, he is not interested in looting the nation’s treasury.”
He emphasized that the administration is putting in efforts to transform the lives of Nigerians through various policies of the federal government.
Olawande thanked the staff of the ministry for being supportive of the government policies and assured them that their welfare will not be compromised.
