President Bola Tinubu utilised his first year in office to examine the shortcomings of the previous administration of former President Muhammadu Buhari, according to PDP chieftain Bode George on Friday.
George did, however, voice optimism that Nigeria will be fixed in the upcoming year by Tinubu’s administration, which will address the shortcomings of Buhari’s.
The PDP leader remarked during an appearance on The Morning Show on Arise TV.
George agreed that Tinubu should have a grace period because he has no prior presidential experience.

George claims that Olusegun Obasanjo, the previous president, need some time to acclimatise to his first year in office.
“Tinubu had never held the position of president at that level. You could argue that he was a member of the APC, which put Muhammadu Buhari in power, but it’s very different from that to take the helm and manage the group now.
“To be fair to my conscience, he has taken that year off from trying to learn from the mistakes made by the previous government. Since he has now seen it and resided there, I have granted him that one year of grace.
“I anticipate that his ministers will have returned in a year with those areas of deficiency. Baba (Olusegun Obasanjo) was still attempting to ascertain what transpired there or vice versa during his first year in office in 1999. “Let’s extend his time,” he remarked.
