Tinubu, who
spoke with newsmen after a meeting with President Buhari yesterday argued that
it was norm the world over for new leaders to settle in the office before
unfolding their agenda for their country.
National
leader of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu has
said that President Muhammadu Buhari and the party have at least 100 days of
honeymoon before embarking on the implementation of “change” programme.
He added that
change does not come by magic, stressing that it is driven by people and proper
planning.
Said he “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 a minimum of 100 days
honeymoon. Change is not by magic. It driven by the people, the spirit and the
character and the planning.
“We have had
so much problem in this country in the past because we ran 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 holistically at what you inherited,
analysis it, distil 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,” the former Governor said.
He stated
that his mission to the Villa was to confer with the president on his recent
visit to the United States of America to ensure that his government was right
on the track.
Tinubu also
denied that President Buhari’s meeting with APC Representatives over the
lingering crisis in the National Assembly held on Monday was deadlocked.
“The purpose
of this visit is to see my president and our leader. The purpose is to ensure
the we are on the right track and coming back from a very successful trip to
United States of America.
“As a matter
of fact when the National Assembly’s job starts, the job of lawmaking in
earnest, the president needs to step in
once in a while as he did to let people to understand the import of the
expectations of the public and particularly of the international community on
various Programmes and institutions.
IS BETTER HE TAKES HIS TIME AND DO THE RIGHT THING THAN RUSH AND GET IT WRONG
