Still on the need for policy reversal by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu

Thumbs-up 👍 👍 👍 again for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the chairman of #ECOWAS, for the reversal of sanctions against B'Faso, Guinea, Mali, and Niger. It remains to be seen if Niger, Mali, and B'Faso will reciprocate the olive branch offered them by dropping their immediate withdrawal from ECOWAS.

In justifying his proposal for lifting of the sanctions during the Extraordinary Session of Heads of State and Government of ECOWAS Member States held on Saturday, 24th Feb. 2024, President Tinubu declared, inter alia, that: “..... However, the sanctions that we contemplated might help lead our brothers to the negotiating table have become a harsh stumbling block. In my mind and heart, that which is hurtful yet ineffective serves no good purpose and should be abandoned.” I would like to use this opportunity to implore Mr. President to also summon courage in his characteristic style to reconsider and abandon his well-intended policies whose implementation modalities are hurtful yet ineffective. Your Excellency, we're talking about the floating of the #Naira, the removal of fuel #subsidy, and proactively the impending removal of #electricity subsidy.

The nation awaits your strategic and humanitarian direction sir.

Bolaji Oladejo.
