It was a show of disappointment as a public lecture scheduled to make public the achievements of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu in his quest to revive the ailing economy in his 500 days in office, was shunned by the All Progressives Congress (APC) chieftains, including the Chief of Staff to the President, Hon. Femi Gbajabiamila.

A report by Efe Aghalokope said the public lecture, organised by Mr. Davies Abdulrafiu, the chairman/publisher of the Tinubu Progressive Grassroots Initiative for Sustainable Governance (TPGISG) Magazine, was expected to draw dignitaries of the ruling party, especially from Lagos and beyond to Surulere in Lagos but failed to live up to expectation.

The programme which took place on Thursday at the Surulere Local Government secretariat, off Masha Close, Surulere, Lagos State, was to enlighten the public on the eight-point agenda of the Tinubu administration towards fixing the Nigerian economy.

It was optimistically expected that the Chief of Staff to the President, Gbajabiamila, would give a keynote address on the eight point agenda on ‘A Renewed Hope Towards Fixing Nigeria Economy’ but he also failed to honour the invitation.

The bewildered executive chairman of Surulere Local Government Area, Hon. Bamidele Yusuf, the host, also expressed his disappointment as none of the dignitaries who were invited showed up and he could not speak on their behalf. (Daily Independent)
