This Is Not The Military Era – Oba Akiolu To Buhari

The Oba of Lagos, Rilwan Akiolu, has reminded
the president, Muhammadu Buhari that his
approach to government should factor in the
present democratic dispensation in the country.

The traditional ruler advised the president against
his ‘military man’ approach to government
adding that Buhari needs to be civil in his
approach to matters.

Oba Akiolu made this known on Monday during
the unveiling of SunTrust Bank Limited, the first
commercial bank to be licensed by the Central
Bank of Nigeria in 15 years.

The Oba said: “All of us just have to support the
President and I advise him to know that he is no
more a military man.

Oba Akiolu further said: “The measures they are
taking on the rot of the past, honestly whether
they like it or not, it was not totally the fault of
former President Goodluck Jonathan.

“I don’t hide the fact that he (Jonathan) is my
personal friend. All that happened was not totally
his fault.

“But it is not too late to make amend. With Prof.
Yemi Osinbajo as head of economic team, with
people like Mrs. Nike Akande as the President of
the Lagos Chamber of Commerce and Industry
and others, they (the federal government) should
listen to advice from people in commercial
sector of the economy.”
