Senator Olamilekan Adeola, also known as Yayi, received particular commendation for his public appeal urging members of his district to continue supporting the president.
Former governor Ibikunle Amosun was also lauded for his efforts in reaching out to student leaders, farmers, and transport workers, explaining the president’s reform objectives.
ECONID’s statement urged leaders of the party across the North to adopt a similar approach to quell ongoing protests, emphasising that such measures are essential for Nigerians to reap the forthcoming benefits of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s administration.
