Dear Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, Mallam Nasir El-Rufai and Rt Hon Rotimi Ameachi you are the tripod stand upon which this administration was sustained. While the campaign lingers I reiterated my believe in  your abilities  to deliver the presidential election in favour of the All Progressives Congress, APC against all odds. I must commend your resilience in retaining the presidential seat for the APC.
I have also never doubted your patriotism and commitment to a better Nigeria, you have all demonstrated these on many fronts, hence the reason for directing my submissions to you.
We rode into power so easily in 2015 because of the goodwill we enjoyed and trust that people have in the drivers of the CHANGE but it was easy for a camel to pass through the eye of a  needle than for us to win in 2019.
The reason for the difficulty in winning in the election is as result of waned confidence due to improper coordination and direction.
We have spent about four years to experiment now we have another opportunity to put Nigeria on fast lane for an accelerated development which should be geometric in progress. There is no time to waste; talents and destinies are been wasted here due to unfriendly environment for human capital development.
Government should not be at war with its citizenry through its policies rather should focus on how to make life better.
It is so sad to see some people toying with the idea of increasing Value Added Tax and removing Petroleum Subsidy just few days after elections as if the winning is to unleash set of hardships on Nigerians. The essence of government is to make life better for the people,they own the resources you are only elected to manage it for them.
My challenge to the trio of you Sirs  as it stands today is to constitute yourselves into Apex Decision Making body by giving us a blueprint for the next four years. Give us a Nigeria we all desires knowing that President Muhammadu Buhari is of age and some people are exploiting the situation not minding the implications on the masses
There are faceless people who are working with the president to design wrong policies without consulting the stake holders thereby creating public disaffection for the government and the political actors. Their faces are not known but yours are known, whatever becomes the lot of Nigeria in the next four years will be written on your forehead and Nigerians will continue to read it forever !
I will also want Rt. Hon. Rotimi Amaechi to look into the $3billion loan for rail construction between Itakpe and Abuja, it is a very good development but I think we should invest firstly in what will be transported on the rail. That money can set up N25 billion industries in each of the 36 States of the federation. This will create jobs for the unemployed.
The school feeding programme should be suspended. It cost an average of N220 million to feed children in each of the 774 Local Government Areas across the country within three years of introducing the policy. Putting these sum in developing infrastructure in primary schools across the federation would have yielded a better results.
May God grant you wisdom to lead us right as we  soar to the Next Level !
