Tinubu Determined To Perform Stubborn Tasks, Lead Nigeria At Any Cost – Dogara

A former speaker of the House of Representatives, Yakubu Dogara, has said President Bola Tinubu is determined to take on stubborn tasks because he is prepared to lead Nigeria at any cost.

Dogara cautioned Nigerians against abandoning Tinubu’s reforms because “things are hard.”

Dogara spoke on Saturday at the 14th convocation ceremony of the Achievers University, Owo, while declaring his support for Tinubu’s reforms.

He applauded Tinubu’s local government reforms and the tax reform bills.
The former Speaker stressed that the local government tax reform was a “master stroke.”

He said: “We have practised this model of leadership that is based on weakness. It has taken us nowhere.

“The president reforms in local government has reinforced more leadership to the third tier of government. What the president did with the local government was a master stroke.

“To give in to cheap argument because things are tough and he should back off is cowardice. We are having a leader who is courageous.

“With what President Bola Tinubu has done, whether it’s the freeing of local government areas from the choke-hold of economic stagnation the states had hitherto subjected them to or the groundbreaking bold tax reforms proposals he had placed before the National Assembly, I see a glimmer of hope that we may be dealing with a leader who is prepared to lead with unbridled courage even at personal cost.

“It gladdens my heart that we are now dealing with a leader who is not avoiding stubborn tasks and very much unwilling to put off difficult conversations.”

President Bola Tinubu recently introduced the Tax Reform bills before the National Assembly.
The bills have, however, stirred controversy among Nigerians. But Tinubu assured that he would always act in the interest of Nigerians.
