I will carry Tinubu on my head if he ends govt’s reckless spending – Momodu

Dele Momodu, a chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, says he will personally carry President Bola Tinubu on the head if he’s able to cut the reckless spending of his government and make palpable sacrifices.

Momodu stated this in a post on his X handle on Friday, while criticising Doyin Okupe, ex-spokesman to former President Olusegun Obasanjo, for supporting Tinubu’s government.

He said the people of Nigeria have never had things so bad and instead thereof he is defending a profligate government with untenable economic ‘hocus pocus’.

Momodu went on to say that no government can succeed with advisers like Okupe.

Part of his post read: “My dear Egbon, DR DOYIN OKUPE, I’m more amazed at your flip-flops Sir. You’re Reno’s senior in engaging in sophistry since your days as Obasanjo’s Spokesman in 1999, till you fell out.

“You’ve defended almost all governments since then with your eloquence. What has Nigeria gained?

“The people of Nigeria have never had things so bad and you’re both defending a profligate government with untenable economic hocus pocus…

“I will personally carry TINUBU on my head if he’s able to cut the reckless spending of his government, make palpable sacrifices, ignite an agricultural revolution, empower our brilliant and energetic youths with vocational grants instead of distributing cash to phantom politicians, etc… But with advisers like you, no government can succeed.”
