President Bola Tinubu has revealed that he was stubborn at the beginning of his administration because he was looking for ways to better the lives of Nigerians.
Tinubu disclosed this during an inter-faith breaking of fast with senior journalists and media executives at the Presidential Villa in Abuja.
He boasted that local governments now get direct allocation from the Federal Government under his administration.
“There’s no morning that I ever leave my house without going through the newspapers. It’s an addiction. I read all of you.
“It might not be in full detail, but headline, the one that would hit me and the ones that won’t.
“At the beginning of this administration, I was just a little bit stubborn, looking at opportunities to correct things and make life more easier for the downtrodden.
“We’ve opened up the principle of federalism to the extent that local governments are now getting their money, but how they use it is in your hands. So, don’t bombard me alone,” Tinubu said.
