Adeyinka, who revealed that he is a card-carrying member of the APC, said he campaigned for Tinubu because he believes the president can fix the country’s problems. He stressed that if Tinubu is unable to resolve Nigeria’s issues, the nation may be in deeper trouble given his ‘’capacity and experience.’’

The comedian praised some of the policies implemented by the Tinubu administration, such as subsidy removal and local government autonomy, but noted that the government needs to be more frugal. Adeyinka also called for patience, saying Tinubu should be given at least two more years as the economic challenges facing Nigeria are not unique but global.
