‘Tinubu was an excellent human being before becoming president’ – Babachir Lawal

Former Secretary to the Government of the Federation, SGF, Babachir Lawal, says President Bola Tinubu was a good man before he became president.
Lawal made this assertion during a programme on Symfoni TV.

According to him, President Tinubu was a good listener, who would do whatever it takes to solve any problem one took to him.

Lawal claimed that Tinubu suddenly changed when he became president, alleging that he was introduced to religious bigots.

“President Tinubu was an excellent human being before he became president. If you’re in a problem, he’ll go to whatever length to solve it. He was a good listener, took advice, and was kind. I used to liken him to Buhari because he was also very kind and sympathetic to people.

“He was an excellent human being, but he went on to become president, and something happened. I know the time he changed, and I told him. Around 2022, Tinubu relocated to Abuja to pursue his presidential ambition, and our people, the northerners who were his friends, surrounded him, and he was caged.

“They introduced him to religious bigots who claimed they knew Buhari, and that was when he started changing. I had access to him then in Abuja.

“He’s someone you can like. Bola has given some people a stupendous amount of money to help them out of crises without expecting anything. But the thing about Tinubu is that he has a gift. He can see your future returns in advance. He does things like that.

“He was a good man at that time, but he has lost his soul now. He’s someone who’s in charge all the time, but he doesn’t look in charge anymore as long as he gets his own share of whatever he’s looking for. The rest they can loot however they want. I wish he could go back to what he was before. Nigeria will be great,” he said.
