“I want to assure Nigerians that the emergence of Asiwaju Bola Tinubu as President of the country and ECOWAS chairman is an of God and a sign of greatness for Nigeria. Tinubu was chosen by God to lead the nation out the woods to the promise land, hence we all need to cooperate with him in order to move the nation to greater heights”
He however expressed optimism that Tinubu’s leadership skills would help in addressing the various challenges bedeviling the West African region and Africa as a whole.
The philanthropist and expert in travels and tour business called on member states to throw their weight behind him in order to make his vision, mission, and blueprints on the new task a reality.
Dr. Adeyinka equally prayed to Almighty Allah to bless him with the required knowledge, wisdom, instinct, and sound health to deliver unprecedentedly.
He then urged Nigerians home and in diaspora to support reforms being introduced by Tinubu’s administration in the best interest of socio- economic development and stability and recovery of Nigeria .
