President Bola Tinubu has urged Nigerians to vote against governors performing below expectation.

Speaking at the Presidential Villa on Thursday, August 24, 2023, the President charged Nigerians to hold their governors accountable.

Tinubu stated: “The people reside in the states. Even if I set up a panel, I will have to go through the governors and the local governments.

"We will continue to talk to the governors. Nigerians must hold them accountable.

“It’s unheard of that in a constitutional democracy, a president will sit here and give orders to states. I can only appeal to them to implement.

“The people reside in the states, and if the governor is not doing well, the people must vote them out.”
