ENUGU, Nigeria (VOICE OF NAIJA)- Presidential media aide, Olusegun Dada, has urged Nigerians to stop thinking there is a messiah for Nigeria.
According to him, no one man can change the country.
He said in a tweet on Wednesday that: “We need to change our mentality on this “messiah” orientation.”
Dada also dismissed the thought and idea that one man can change Nigeria, describing it is a facade that cannot work.
“The thought of “only one man can change the entire country” is a facade and can’t work,” Mr Dada said.

Dada’s statement comes a few weeks before president Tinubu marks one year in office while Nigerians lament economic hardships as food prices have tripled compared to when Mr Tinubu assumed office last year.
Recall that Tinubu had in the 2023 presidential election, projected himself as the best candidate for the job, saying he would replicate the success he had in Lagos during his time as governor at the federal level.
But almost one year into his government, his aides, like Dada, are dissuading Nigerians from seeing Tinubu as a messiah or expecting him to change the country for good.
Peoples Gazette quoted president Tinubu as saying After he assumed office that he was well prepared for the job ahead of time and no one should pity him.
