Adams Oshiomhole Criticizes Former President Buhari’s Policies, Defends Tinubu

Senator Adams Oshiomhole, representing Edo North Senatorial District, has criticized the policies of former President Muhammadu Buhari, stating that Nigerians are still suffering from their impact.

Oshiomhole made these remarks in an interview on Channels Television monitored by the media.

The former governor of Edo State also defended President Bola Tinubu, stating that Tinubu should not be held responsible for the right or wrong decisions taken by the previous administration.

Oshiomhole praised Tinubu for always prioritizing national interests over partisan interests.

“My first loyalty is to Nigeria. At some point, before the last president left office, I lamented loudly what I saw as reckless policies that were designed to dehumanize the population that was already in pain,” Oshiomhole stated.

“I felt that it is not what the then president promised. I dissociated myself from those policies and I’m happy that I was not the only one.”

Oshiomhole also highlighted that there were governors who approached the court to denounce some of those policies, emphasizing that the long-term consequences of those policies are still being felt.

He clarified, “Yes, it is our party platform. Like Tinubu also said, he was not a minister or adviser.

He never took a contract in that government and he cannot be held responsible for what the government did right or wrong.”
