He described the multiple errors committed by Tinubu during recent public outings as a “comedy of gaffes”, arguing that he can’t continue supporting what is not good for the nation.

“We stand with the public and part ways with those who see nothing wrong with the mass sufferings of the citizenry. I am not sorry that I stand for what is good for our
