President Bola Tinubu has urged Nigerians to commend him when he is doing well and also criticize him if his government is not getting it right.
Tinubu made the comment on Sunday in Abuja while declaring open the annual conference of the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA).
“If I do well, please praise me, and if I don’t do well, please criticize me to do well,” the president’s spokesman, Ajuri Ngelale, quoted Tinubu as saying in a statement.
