“Nigeria’s Progress Can’t Happen Overnight,” — Former Gov Fayose Backs Pres Tinubu’s Policies. Former Ekiti State Governor Ayodele Fayose has praised President Bola Tinubu’s efforts in stabilizing Nigeria’s economy, emphasizing that meaningful change takes time. Fayose, a member of the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), made the remarks on Monday night after a private visit to Tinubu at his Lagos residence. “My visit was personal—to encourage him to keep pushing forward with his policies for the benefit of Nigerians,” Fayose told journalists. “Transformation doesn’t happen overnight; there’s no instant solution to the nation’s challenges.” He acknowledged the difficulties of governance but commended the president for making tough decisions to stabilize the economy.
