An ally of the late June 12, 1993 hero, Chief MKO Abiola, Alhaji Sufianu Kazeem, has described President Bola Ahmed Tinubu as the best listening president Nigeria has ever produced.

He said the country had never had a president that listened to the citizens and led according to their yearnings, until the emergence of President Tinubu.

A statement by the elder statesman said: “Let it be on record that this is the first time Nigeria will be having a listening President, who never fails to show understanding with the plights of Nigerians whenever the need arises.

“President Tinubu has portrayed himself as a leader, a mentor and a father, who will spare nothing to alleviate the pains of Nigerians.’’ Kazeem urged Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) led by Comrade Joe Ajaero not to be used against the wish of the majority of Nigerians.
