TV Anchor, Rufai Oseni Praises Tinubu for Recognising June 12

Prominent Nigerian TV broadcaster and news anchor Rufai Oseni has commended President Bola Tinubu for his recent decisions. Oseni expressed his appreciation on Twitter, stating that the President’s recognition of June 12 struggle heroes and the pardon of Ogoni leaders was a commendable move.

However, Oseni also shared his opinion that the list of beneficiaries should have included other notable figures, such as Dele Momodu and Omoyele Sowore.

“For me, President Tinubu has done very well today by recognising those in the struggle of June 12th and the pardon of the Ogoni leaders,” Oseni wrote. “Although I feel people like Dele Momodu, Sowore, and others should also be on that list.

This doesn’t mean I will not criticise the President when he’s wrong. But today, thank you, President Tinubu.”

Oseni’s comments reflect the nuanced perspectives of many Nigerians, who appreciate gestures of goodwill while also holding leaders accountable for their actions.
