In a recent interview, Babachir Lawal, former Secretary to the Government of the Federation, criticized President Bola Ahmed Tinubu's leadership style, questioning his shift from inclusive governance during his Lagos tenure to a more centralized approach in Abuja. Lawal lamented that Tinubu's current administration appears focused on Lagos-centric projects and appointments, neglecting the diverse needs of Nigeria's population. He expressed disappointment that the President, once known for his financial discipline and inclusive cabinet, has seemingly favored a select group of associates. Lawal also accused the administration of undermining the judiciary's independence and using state institutions to weaken opposition parties, raising concerns about the future of democracy in Nigeria. He called for a return to the inclusive governance model that characterized Tinubu's earlier leadership. Lawal's remarks reflect a growing discontent among those who once supported the President, urging a reevaluation of his current policies and practices.
