Daddy Freeze Praises Tinubu's Efforts, Claims President Restored His Faith in Nigeria

Controversial media figure Ifedayo Olarinde, also known as Daddy Freeze, has expressed a renewed sense of hope in Nigeria, crediting President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for restoring his faith in the country.

This came  In a recent interview on Nigeria Info FM in Lagos, Daddy Freeze acknowledged the nation's persistent challenges but commended the President’s efforts, particularly in addressing the power sector. 

He compared Nigeria to a "big overloaded tipper with a bad engine," suggesting that while progress may be slow, it is achievable with patience and time.

Daddy Freeze stated, “I was worried initially, but with the way this administration has managed things so far, I now feel there is hope for this country.” 

Recall that during the 2023 presidential election, where Daddy Freeze supported younger candidates like Peter Obi and Omoyele Sowore, believing their leadership would resonate more with the youth. However, he has since emphasized the importance of supporting the elected government, noting that Tinubu’s victory could be beneficial for Nigerian youths and the nation as a whole.

Also, Daddy Freeze defended President Tinubu’s decision to remove the fuel subsidy, pointing out that similar stances had been taken by other political figures, including Peter Obi. He urged Nigerians to consider these viewpoints before raising objections.
