Action Democratic Party National Chairman, Sani Yabagi, has called for Bola Tinubu to step down from his role as Minister of Petroleum, arguing that his position protects corruption in the oil and gas sector.
During an interview with AIT on Sunday, Yabagi stated that Tinubu holding the position of Petroleum Minister would hinder investigations into the oil sector.
He believes that Tinubu should resign as Minister of Petroleum to allow for a proper investigation into the alleged fraud in the sector.
He said, “It is not making him look good at all because it portrays him as somebody who is shielding the thieves and crooks in the country.
“We all know that the problem of corruption in this country is in that sector so Tinubu should not be the person shielding them.

“For instance, when issues come up, the national assembly cannot invite anybody. You can’t hold the Minister of State for anything because his oga is somewhere. Unfortunately, his oga is the oga of everybody, so how do you invite him.
“This is the sector that matters alot. You accepted that there is fraud in the sector so why are you shielding the fraud? Why are you not allowing Nigerians to interrogate?
“Nobody in the sector has been taken to court because you can’t sue Tinubu”.
