No Government Can Succeed With Advisers Like You – Dele Momodu Knocks Doyin Okupe
A chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Dele Momodu, has berated Doyin Okupe for pledging support to the administration of President Bola Tinubu.
Momodu slammed Okupe for defending the incumbent government despite the situation in the country.
He lamented that Nigeria’s economy has never been this bad.
Speaking via his X handle on Friday, the Ovation publisher asserted that he would carry Tinubu on the head if he is able to cut the reckless spending of his government and make palpable sacrifices.
Momodu went on to say that no government can succeed with advisers like Okupe.
His post read in part, “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.”
