Senator Smart Adeyemi, representing Kogi West in the National Assembly, has said that President Bola Tinubu will fire any minister who fails to perform in six months.

Adeyemi stated this in an interview with Arise Television on Wednesday.

He said Tinubu is a man in a hurry to make a difference and reposition Nigeria, and he will not tolerate non-performers.

“What Nigerians should know about President Bola Tinubu today, including those who are ministers, is that from his track record, once you don’t perform in six months, he shows you the way out.

“Those who are being nominated or given appointments, I celebrate you but if you don’t perform this man will show them (the way) out. It’s not a question of leaving them for eight years or four years. Asiwaju doesn’t have that kind of track record,” Adeyemi said.

The senator also said that Tinubu’s legislative experience and that of his Vice, Kashim Shettima, will help them perform excellently.

“This is the first time we are having field politicians controlling the executive arm of government,” Adeyemi said.

He added that Tinubu’s government would resurrect moribund economic and productive endeavours in the country and create opportunities for real economic development.
