The Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi II, has charged President-elect Bola Ahmed Tinubu with instilling hope in Nigerians.
He made the remarks in a statement issued by Otunba Moses Olafare, the Director of Media and Public Affairs at the Ooni’s Palace.
Ooni, who also serves as Co-Chairman of the National Council of Traditional Rulers of Nigeria (NCTRN), has directed Tinubu to immediately form a transition team of bright men and women to devise an economic recovery strategy.
Tinubu is also to move into action swiftly upon his inauguration on May 29th 2023 in a way that will further assure Nigerians of the ‘Renewed Hope’, the king added.
His statement partly reads; “Your Excellency, I congratulate you and your amiable wife on behalf of the Oduduwa race worldwide as you have victoriously emerged as the President-elect of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
“You are indeed a man of destiny, you are a game changer, and you are a progressive workaholic who has worked assiduously with the right strategy and tactics justifying the merit of your recorded victory.
“As a pragmatic leader and manager of resources with adequate proven capacity to lead this country to an enviable position within the global committee of nations, please don’t disappoint Nigerians and the African people.
“As the tested and trusted cerebral team leader that you are, you must in a couple of days present your transition team of cerebral men and women to give us an economic recovery blueprint as Nigerians can not wait to be liberated from the unbearable economic hardship that has bedevilled the country in the recent times.
“Nigerians have voted for you because of your promise of a ‘Renewed Hope” and you must swiftly, from your first day in office on May 29, 2023, set the ball rolling in a manner that will further assure Nigerians of the ‘Renewed Hope’. Ooni said.
