The politician described the hunger crisis in Nigeria under Tinubu’s administration as embarrassing, especially since the former Governor of Lagos State had promised to eliminate hunger if elected.
Onokpasa, while appearing live on the Arise News programme on Monday, recalled that Tinubu had assured Nigerians that his government would produce food massively.
“What Asiwaju promised us is that if we help him get to power he is going to produce food massively to feed Nigerians.
“We didn’t envisage this bizarre level of comfortability with prices just skyrocketing out of control”, he said.
Onokpasa added: “I don’t know what happened to Asiwaju, in fact I’m a catholic and I will book masses for him. Whatever is happening let God deliver him from it.
“How can you be a president and prices of food are skyrocketing? if we can’t reduce the price of fuel can’t we feed people?
“Why is Asiwaju so reluctant to invest in Agriculture, he asked.
“Nigerians are hungry and it is shameful that President Tinubu seems detached from the reality of the people”.
