In a recent book presentation, former Governor Kayode Fayemi of Ekiti State urged the National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Umar Ganduje, to inform President Bola Tinubu about the real situation of Nigerians.
Fayemi emphasized the need for Ganduje to provide feedback from various communities, so that the president does not solely rely on information obtained from his secluded residence.
During the event, titled ‘APC & Transition Politics’ and written by APC chieftain Salihu Lukman, Fayemi called on the ruling party to fulfill their manifesto and actively participate in policy making instead of merely being bystanders.
Expressing his concern, the former governor lamented that the presence of flatterers has created a barrier preventing the Presidential Villa from accurately understanding the genuine sentiments of the Nigerian people.
According to Fayemi: “I am happy that our chairman is here. This is the party that should not be a spectator in policy making.
“This party should be the one to project the manifesto of the party.
“This party should be the one to tell Mr. President that this is the feedback from the communities and constituencies out there, not what he is hearing in the villa where he is locked up.”
