Tinubu works a lot, goes to bed 3 am — spokesperson

Presidential spokesperson Ajuri Ngelale has praised President Bola Tinubu as a dedicated worker, describing him as a relentless “workaholic” who tirelessly devotes himself to the betterment of Nigeria.

Speaking with Chude Jideonwo in an interview shared on Thursday, Ngelale emphasised Tinubu’s commitment, revealing that the President consistently burns the midnight oil, often staying up until 2 am or 3 am, even on Sundays, to tackle the nation’s challenges.

He said, “I’m saying hang in there because I can see an end to this. I’m working with a man who I can personally vouch for because he’s going to bed at 2 am-3 am every single night, including Sundays.”

He continued, “He (Tinubu) wakes up at 7 am-8 am every morning including Sundays. Opening his files, working into the late nights when no one is there to say anything good or bad about him. He is doing the work.

“He is a workaholic, and he is doing it all to build a country that is reflective of a progressive and advanced country and prosperous society that he has envisioned, the same way he did in Lagos.

“I’m asking Nigerians to support the president, he means well.”

Ngelale’s comment about the president is reminiscent of Babatunde Fashola’s remark about him in April 2023.

While speaking on Channels TV, the former Governor of Lagos State, said Tinubu does his best work in the dead of the night.

Fashola, who worked under Tinubu as the chief of staff for four and a half years urged those working with the president to be prepared to be nocturnal.
