Why Pres. Tinubu can’t replicate performance as Lagos Gov yet – FCCPC Boss, Tunji Bello

The Chief Executive Officer of the Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (FCCPC), Tunji Bello, has explained that governing Nigeria poses different challenges compared to managing Lagos State.

Speaking in an interview with Channels Television on Friday, September 6, Bello said, “What I know is that he (Tinubu) is somebody who fights for the interest of Nigerians at any point in time, just like he did when he was in Lagos.

Considering what he contributed to the development of Lagos, the expectation is that he will do the same thing in Nigeria. But Nigeria is a different thing entirely.

So, we should not expect that what he did in Lagos, he should come and do the same thing. There is Federal Character in Nigeria, when you get to the Centre.

There is nothing like Federal Character in Lagos. That itself is one of the things he has to surmount. He has to consider the interest of different areas. He cannot just say that what works here (Lagos) must work there (at the centre).
