Tinubu Has A “Track Record of Performance And Would Fire Ministers Who Perform Poorly After Six Months – Smart Adeyemi

Adeyemi Smart, a former politician who served as Kogi West’s senator in the ninth Senate, has issued a warning to the country’s ministries, telling them to do their jobs or risk being “shown the way out” by President Bola Tinubu.

Adeyemi sounded the warning on Wednesday when he appeared on the Channels Television programme ‘Politics Today.’

According to the former congressman, Tinubu has a “track record of performance,” and he is trying to put Nigeria in a better position.

Adeyemi said, “What Nigerians should know about President Bola Tinubu today, including those who are ministers, is that from his track record, once you don’t perform in six months, he shows you the way out.

“That’s what he’s going to do. The man (Tinubu) is in a hurry to make a difference. Asiwaju wants to make a name. He wants to reposition Nigeria. He wants to recover lost grounds to the nation.

 “He’s telling us that he appreciates we’re going through some pains. He’s coming with a track record of performance. Those who are being nominated or given appointments, I celebrate you but if you don’t perform, this man will show them (the way) out. It’s not a question of leaving them for eight years or four years. Asiwaju doesn’t have that kind of track record.”

The three-time former senator also downplayed an incident that transpired in the upper chamber on Tuesday, when Senator Mohammed Ndume, the Senate’s chief whip, exited the room after it was decided that he was out of order.

In order to highlight the way in which Godswill Akpabio, the Senate president, oversees Senate business, Ndume had referred to standing rule number 54.

In his reaction, Adeyemi stated, “There is nothing to worry about because a new assembly like this will start on this kind of a note. After some time, everybody will get to understand each other.”
