Bola came a distant third in the number of votes scored. \u201d<\/p>\n<p>He urged the president to resign to prevent public humiliation and embarrassment.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy answer to the second inquiry is that given the now unfolding deluge of uncomplimentary information about who or what he is, ordinarily, sound ethics and morality should have convinced him to voluntarily excuse himself from participation in the election.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut this, notwithstanding, I believe he still has time and opportunity to save himself this public humiliation and embarrassment to his person, both locally and internationally by resigning so that he can give more attention to his health.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAfter all, no one knows about the truism of these severely embarrassing and humiliating exposures about his person than the man himself.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLeadership is all about integrity; sound pedigree, trustworthiness, and the ability to unite and instil hope and confidence in the people one seeks to lead. In these qualities, most Nigerians are in total agreement that Bola has them in very very short supply indeed, \u201d the statement added.<\/p>\n<p>Lawal said Tinubu had yet to appoint any competent person into office.<\/p>\n<p>He said, \u201cBola the President, and his group are now in government and are in full control of Nigeria\u2019s vast resources and opportunities. They are enjoying their offices while Nigerians languish in insecurity, poverty and hopelessness.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDuring the campaign, Bola mouthed some platitudes about competence; but we are so far yet to see it reflected in his political appointments. It seems more like he is rewarding people who supported him to get the Presidency at all costs \u201cThis band of appointees that Bola is assembling into his government don\u2019t care about Nigeria at all.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFuel prices will continue to gallop upwards until only they can afford it; the Naira will continue to race downhill in a free-fall until only they can afford anything in the market; insecurity will continue its escalation until every community in the nation is consumed by it\u201d.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Babachir claims Obi had majority votes while Atiku came second and Bola Tinubu came a distant third in the number of votes scored A former Secretary to the Federal Government, Babachir Lawal, said that the candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi, won the February 25 presidential election, and not Bola Tinubu.
