Two prominent non-governmental organizations, ‘We Are United’ and ‘Excellent Leadership For Sustainable Development and Good Governance’, (ELSDGG), have called on President Bola Tinubu to prioritize experience, capacity, and compassion when appointing leaders, particularly in the area of humanitarian affairs.
In a joint heartfelt plea, ‘We Are United’ President Comrade Felix Idowu Tororunju and the Executive Director, ELSDGG, Dr. Eunice Bosua urged the President to avoid filling critical roles with individuals lacking the necessary qualifications and passion. “Given the current economic realities, Mr. President cannot afford to appoint anyone who isn’t fully equipped to tackle the immense challenges ahead,” they stated.
The groups rallied behind Hon. Delu Bulus Yakubu, a Senior Special Assistant to the President, for her remarkable efforts in the humanitarian sector. Despite operating without a budget, Delu has continued to provide crucial support, stepping up after the suspension of former Minister Beta Edu ensuring that vulnerable populations don’t fall through the cracks.
“Her unwavering commitment to humanity, even without resources, has earned her widespread acclaim and several awards,” the groups added, citing her dedication to the less privileged.
Comrade Tororunju and Dr. Bosua emphasized the importance of selecting leaders who are not only skilled but also deeply empathetic. “The next humanitarian minister must have a track record of compassion, experience, and the ability to lead in these challenging times.”
They further acknowledged the tough circumstances the current administration inherited but called for patience and collective support. “Fixing the nation’s issues won’t happen overnight. Nigerians must unite behind President Tinubu and give him the time needed to deliver on the promise of a better future.”
