Former Ekiti State Governor Kayode Fayemi believes President Bola Tinubu’s policies are well-meaning, but that is insufficient for effective leadership.
The former governor, who referred to the president as his elder brother, stated that the Tinubu administration must have a policy framework that is aligned with leadership acumen in order to bring about the necessary transformation for Nigerians.
“He (Tinubu) is well-meaning but well-meaning is not enough in leadership; intentionality is critical to success,” the All Progressives Congress (APC) chairman stated on Channels Television’s Politics Today program on Thursday.
Fayemi, a high-ranking member of the president’s party and an ally of the number one citizen, stated that those in authority are aware of the reality but do not act on it “because there are many mediating factors”.
He stated, “President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has done many good things, we all must acknowledge that. He’s been bold to take on some of the most difficult decisions that previous leaders have been reluctant to take on.
“The fallout of those decisions has caused us huge cost of living crisis. Fuel subsidy removal, convergence of FX window.
“Whether you talk about student loan or other efforts at resisting insurgency, taming insecurity, tax policy reform, increase revenue into the federal coffers, some elements are there but need to come together.
“This is where effective policy framework go side by side with leadership acumen to get a change of narrative to the story. Maybe that’s the area where we need to do lots more.”
