Senator Adams Oshiomhole, representing Edo North, has said that the APC led Federal Government never promised Nigerians instant miracles, insisting that President Bola Tinubu’s administration is pursuing gradual but meaningful reforms.
Oshiomhole made the remarks on Wednesday while responding to questions on Channels Television’s Politics Today programme.
According to him, although the Tinubu administration has been in office for about two and a half years, visible changes are occurring daily as a result of ongoing reforms.
He argued that some of the same critics who previously demanded a departure from old approaches are now questioning the government for choosing a radically different path.
Oshiomhole said the president is not merely adjusting the existing system but carrying out deep and far reaching changes designed to address long standing structural problems.
He maintained that the administration should be assessed based on the direction and substance of its policies, rather than on expectations of immediate outcomes, stressing that meaningful national transformation takes time.
Oshiomhole said: “We did not promise miracles. In two and a half years of Bola Ahmed Tinubu, every day there is something changing.
“And like I said, this is a society in which people like Peter Obi will say, ‘you can’t keep doing the same thing over and over and expect a different outcome.’
“Okay, now Tinubu is doing something totally different, not just reforming, but radically reforming. And then you say, ‘Why is he reforming?’”
