President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, as a father of the nation, should heed the pleas of underprivileged Nigerians and consider reinstating Dr. Betta Edu to her position, given that no guilt has been established.
By Yusuf Raul Gombe
As a father figure of the nation, he is expected to prioritize the welfare of all Nigerians, particularly the most vulnerable in society. Recent decisions have raised doubts about his fulfillment of this responsibility.
One such controversial decision is the dismissal of Dr. Betta Edu from her role as Minister of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Alleviation. Dr. Edu has been a staunch advocate for marginalized and disadvantaged groups, tirelessly working to enhance the lives of millions of vulnerable Nigerians. Her dedication has won her widespread respect and admiration.
As a social activist and human rights advocate, I implore President Tinubu to reconsider this decision and restore Dr. Edu to her position. The cries of millions of vulnerable Nigerians must not go unheard, and it is imperative that their needs are addressed by a competent and compassionate leader like Dr. Edu.
The Minister of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Alleviation plays a pivotal role in tackling Nigeria's entrenched issues of poverty and inequality. Dr. Edu's expertise and commitment to social justice make her well-suited for this role, and her reinstatement would signal the government's dedication to enhancing the lives of all citizens.
President Tinubu has an opportunity to exhibit his commitment to the well-being of Nigerians by listening to their appeals and reinstating Dr. Betta Edu. As a father of the nation, he must prioritize the needs of the most vulnerable and ensure their voices are heard and their rights protected.
It is my fervent hope that President Tinubu will heed this plea and take steps to reinstate Dr. Edu, enabling her to continue her vital work in serving the people of Nigeria. Together, we can forge a more equitable and just society for all Nigerians.
