A behavioral, developmental and child/young persons care professional, Kemi Olokode-Ayelabola has applauded President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for considering cabinet reshuffle after almost 17 months in office, just as she said leadership holds the potential of heralding a period of positive change for county’s democratic process to flourish.
Kemi who is the Chairperson and Convener of Asiwaju Renewed Hope (ARH’23) that mobilised and campaigned for President Bola Tinubu during the February 2023 presidential poll, made this known in a statement she made available to newsmen on Saturday, September 28, 2024.
She also saluted the courage of the President in using socio-economic and political solutions to take the country out of its dire straits with the positive resolve to offer Nigerians a new lease of life in tandem with his renewed hope agenda.
According to her “The announcement from the Presidency which indicated that there would be cabinet reshuffle in the administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu GCFR is indeed a good omen for the politics of our country, our democracy, and for Nigeria as a whole. It is also an affirmation that Tinubu’s leadership holds the potential of heralding positive change for Nigeria’s democratic process to flourish effectively and efficiently, especially when competent hands are involved.
“This laudable and well intentioned cabinet reshuffle is timely and also demonstrates that Nigeria has a listening President who heeded the call of some patriotic Nigerians who explained that some of President’s cabinet members are completely disconnected from his ideas, policies and programmes. It is, however, commendable to see that Mr. President is now ready and committed to injecting new blood for optimum service delivery for the overall good of the nation.”
While calling for all hands to be on deck in ensuring progress in the nation, she said, “All stakeholders in Project Nigeria must work together to strengthen the nation’s much-battered psyche; in the face of recent national and international challenges. The resilience and patriotism of all Nigerians are essentially required at a time like this, so that the country can attain her positive goals. We must all shed all partisan, ethnic, sectional and religious differences so that our country can flourish, prosper and succeed in every endeavor.”
