Dele Farotimi, a political activist and commentator, says President Bola Tinubu does not possess the will to appoint ministers that can fix Nigeria.

In an interview with 90Minutes Africa on Sunday, Farotimi said members of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) do not have the interest of the country at heart.

Over the past few days, there have been conversations on the delay in the submission of the ministerial list to the senate for screening.

The president has till Friday, July 28, to submit the list, in accordance with a 60-day constitutional timeframe.

Reacting to the development, the lawyer averred that the much-awaited list from Tinubu will not change the fortunes of the country.

“They (the ruling class) don’t have their houses in Nigeria, they hop on the plane and fly abroad to see their doctors when they have a common cold and their children don’t even go to school in Nigeria,” he said.

“What is it about the APC and the Nigerian political ‘ruiners’ as a collective that would inspire anybody into believing that the worst that could come from the Nigerian president is to appoint those who will lift the people he has helped to enslave out of their enslavement.

“Some of us knew from the beginning that Tinubu would be bad for the country. We warned everyone and people listened.

“They fought to make sure that he did not emerge but he proceeded to force himself into the office and is proceeding to corrupt every strata of the society.

“Peter Obi has awakened the people to understand the power that they possess. What we do with that power going forward is entirely on us.”

Micheal Bamidele, senate leader, disclosed on Tuesday that the president will dispatch his ministerial list to the upper legislative chamber within the next 48 hours.

There is one statement from Buhari's government that stands true despite his hypocrisy and Fulani terrorism that he permitted. And that is; Change Begins With You

The idea that bad followership is a function of bad leadership is a lie. The truth is that a people deserve the kind of government they get. A good tree will bear good fruits and vice versa. The truth is that bad leadership is a function of bad followers.

The much touted leaders of tomorrow still engage in exam malpractice to graduate with good grades. They sort, they bribe and then party all semester. The business people sell fake products and try to deceive their customers in order to make as much profit as possible. Fuel station owners quickly adjust their pump prices to make outrageous gains even though their old stocks have not been exhausted. The civil servants insist on bribes or your file will not be moved to the next level. The pastors prophesy and teach lies because that is what their miracle-seeking and tithe-paying church members want to hear. Imams do same to their herd to keep them zombified and ready to murder any drifter in or out of their "religion of peace". Nigerians, nobody is coming to do magic for you. The change begins with you.
