National leader of APC, Bola Tinubu has called on Nigerians to be
patient with the Buhari led government saying that change can't come by
magic. He added that change comes with planning. Tinubu said this after a
meeting with President Buhari earlier today.
"Excuse me! Let us calm now here. How long ago? May 29th was when this
president was sworn in. It is an international norm all over the world,
there is an honeymoon period, at least minimum of 100 days honeymoon.
And you won’t allow honeymoon at all? You said change is not coming,
change is not by magic it is driven by the people, the spirit and the
character and the planning.
You see, we have had so much problem in this country
in the past because we run into policy blind folded without adequate and
effective planning you don’t have results unless you plan well. The
time it takes you to plan, examine, rejig, re-evaluate is more important
than the time you just rush into taking action because you are either
being sentimental, being emotional and being driven by other forces that
are not expected. It is not fair to jump into those conclusions. There
must be time to plan, to review and even listen to people. There is a
separation between a campaign period, articulating your vision,
expressing the promises to Nigerians, there is a time to look at
wholistically what you inherited, analysis it, distill and then take
action. Even in 100 meters race, there is a time to say on your mark,
set, ready, go. So you don’t even want a time to be on your mark, set
and go? No no no. You are not being fair.” he said
