Adeleke Speaks On His Relationship With President Tinubu

Meanwhile, the Governor of Osun State, Ademola Adeleke, has said he has a cordial relationship with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

The Osun governor, in an interview with Arise News, said he does not have any issue with the President, adding that he became the Nigerian leader because God ordained it.

Adeleke asked Nigerians to keep praying for him, and his health so that he could solve the economic and security challenges facing the nation in the shortest possible time.

He said, “One thing with me is that whichever way he gets there, God wants him to be there. That is my belief. Since he’s there now, he’s our President, so we have to keep praying for him. For his health, for everything so that he can do well for us. He’s not there a year yet.

“We are praying and we are watching that the suffering of our people will change, that is just our prayer. We hope to see growth for the better because people are suffering economically.”
