Former Bayelsa State Governor, Chief Timipre Sylva, has expressed unwavering confidence in the economic policies of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, affirming that Nigeria is on track for a healthier and more sustainable economy. In a statement released by Sylva’s Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Julius Bokoru, on Wednesday, it was reiterated that Sylva fully supports President Tinubu’s economic agenda and remains aligned with his principles.
During his campaign for President Tinubu in Bayelsa during the last election, Sylva lauded the President as a “modern industrialist,” emphasizing the compatibility of his own beliefs with Tinubu’s economic vision. Bokoru emphasized that Sylva has consistently advocated for the core tenets of President Tinubu’s ideals, focusing on modesty, clarity, and a genuine commitment to the welfare of the people.
Addressing recent criticism directed at President Tinubu’s economic policies, Bokoru clarified that Sylva has never directly or indirectly opposed these policies. He highlighted the emergence of critical articles aimed at creating discord between Sylva and President Tinubu, dismissing them as baseless attempts to undermine their relationship and sow division within the party.
Bokoru condemned the dissemination of divisive articles as a ploy by detractors to tarnish Sylva’s reputation and destabilize the party. He emphasized that such tactics reflect the desperation and cynicism of those seeking to undermine Sylva’s political standing and disrupt the party’s unity.
Furthermore, Bokoru stressed that the author of the critical article does not represent Sylva or the APC in Bayelsa State. He emphasized that Sylva’s support for President Tinubu’s economic plans remains steadfast, reiterating his belief in Nigeria’s progress towards a robust and sustainable economy under Tinubu’s leadership.
Sylva remains resolute in his conviction that President Tinubu is focused on governance and will not be swayed by unfounded propaganda intended to sow discord. Bokoru urged against further attempts to undermine President Tinubu’s leadership, emphasizing the need for unity and solidarity within the party to achieve their common goals.
In conclusion, Bokoru reaffirmed Sylva’s unwavering support for President Tinubu’s economic blueprint and urged against any attempts to undermine their collective vision for Nigeria’s economic development. He emphasized that Sylva remains committed to advancing President Tinubu’s agenda and promoting unity within the party to ensure a brighter future for all Nigerians.
