Vice President Shettima’s will chair a high-level dialogue on Tinubu’s one year in office. This has sparked controversies and comments from Nigerians as majority are pessimistic about the future.
The event, intended to showcase the administration’s achievements, focusing on leveraging international cooperation has instead highlighted the stark divisions and criticisms of the Renewed Hope Agenda.
The event, scheduled for Friday, May 17, 2024, will bring together leaders and thinkers in government, the international development community, and civil society to deliberate on how to advance the gains made in the first year of his administration.
Have the administration’s policies and actions benefited the people, or just a privileged few?
This event is said to reflect a significant milestone in Tinubu administration’s commitment to international cooperation and its determination to deliver on its promises to Nigerians.
Critics argue that the dialogue would be a staged PR stunt, designed to distract from the administration’s failures and controversies. “This is nothing more than a desperate attempt to rewrite history and gloss over the harm they’ve caused,” said one opposition leader.
However, many Nigerians are more concerned about their fate in the coming years and are praying earnestly for a positive change.
