President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has said that he does not owe any cabal compensation as he funded his presidential ambition personally during the last election.
The President made this known while receiving a delegation of Islamic leaders led by Sheikh Bala Lau, at the State House on Thursday, July 15.
Tinubu shutdown claims that he is being controlled by some ‘cabal’ who are behind the decisions on reforms his administration embarks on.
In his words:
“I have no cabal. I have no sponsors. The money I spent on the elections was my personal fortune. At some point, the odds were against me; banks were locked. But Allah, the Almighty God, said I will be the President. Mine is to now follow the leading and teaching of the Almighty God. One of the most potent elements of defence is a good conscience. It is also a defence against corruption.
What should be uppermost in our minds is the future of our children. We have a lot to teach them on what it takes to be a good citizen and what it takes to be a responsible citizen.”
“We are reworking the social welfare scheme to reach the ward level, which is the closest to our people. We are going to ensure that we re-establish connection with the wards, again, so that we can give allowances to the poor and the vulnerable.
The student loans will pay for school fees. There will be monetary support for the education of our children. The consumer credit will support citizens to buy cars and houses, and they can repay gradually. We have increased the minimum wage by more than 100 percent.”
