Again, Tinubu Goes Into Hiding

Again

OpenLife Nigeria reports that yet again, the President, Bola Ahmed Tinubu has gone into hiding in a controversial circumstance.
This time, yet again, information reveals that it is not unconnected with the ministerial list which has accentuated much pressure on him.
It would be recalled that on May 10, shortly before the handover, a statement from the office of the then president-elect signed by Tunde Rahman said Tinubu was travelling out of Nigeria to fine-tune the transition plans and programmes, and his policy options with some of his key aides without unnecessary pressures and distractions about ministerial appointments.
This time, the Senate has declared that President Bola Tinubu has gone into hiding to avoid undue influence over ministerial appointments.
According to the Senate, the list will be received in the next 24 hours, and that the President decided to go into hiding for the next 48 hours to enable him come up with a list of nominees that would be acceptable to all Nigerians.
This was disclosed on Tuesday by the Senate Leader, Senator Opeyemi Bamidele (APC, Ekiti Central) at his 60th birthday anniversary lecture and presentation of two books on Leadership, Communication at the Yar’Adua Centre, Abuja.
Bamidele said: “Let me tell you, and you must encourage me; I need to make myself unavailable for the next 48 hours because a correspondence must come to the Senate, a very crucial correspondence.
“So Mr President prayed for me. We should tell the rest of Nigerians to pray for me to be able to make the right decision within the next 24 hours so that when Nigerians hear the list of his ministers, they will say ‘yes…this is uncommon’, and join us to pray for Mr President.
“He needed to be away from any kind of influence.”
