Oil magnate and philanthropist, Prince Arthur Eze, has described President Bola Ahmed Tinubu as “God’s gift to Nigeria,” lauding his leadership style, inclusive governance, and commitment to national unity and development, particularly in the Southeast.
According to a statement signed by Bayo Onanuga, Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, Prince Eze made these remarks in a special documentary by the State House in commemoration of President Tinubu’s second anniversary in office.
“God doesn’t make mistakes. That man, Tinubu, was created for a purpose. God gave him the power to change lives,” Eze said, adding that the President’s leadership reflects divine purpose and courage at a critical moment in Nigeria’s history.
Praising Tinubu’s personal qualities, the founder of Atlas Oranto Petroleum said, “Tinubu has no enemies. He is a unifier. He speaks with humility and honesty; that’s why we admire him.”
Reflecting on his personal experiences during the Nigerian Civil War and his longstanding ties to the Southeast, Prince Eze highlighted Tinubu’s notable appointments and developmental gestures to the region.
“What Tinubu has done for the Southeast, nobody else has. He gave us the Minister of Works, the Minister of Science and Technology, and the Southeast Development Commission. This is an opportunity for the Igbo to unite with the rest of Nigeria,” he stated.
On the President’s economic reform agenda, the 76-year-old business leader expressed satisfaction with the pace and impact of the Renewed Hope initiatives, saying Tinubu has shown remarkable resilience in the face of inherited economic challenges.
“God has given him the wisdom to change Nigeria for the good of the present and future generations,” Prince Eze said.
Calling on Nigerians to rally around the President, he appealed for unity and collective effort toward national progress. “He’s not a man of division — whether Christian or Muslim, he respects all. All he asks is that we pray to God and work together.”
He concluded with a heartfelt prayer for the President and the nation: “May God guide Nigeria and President Tinubu. He gave him this power and will help him complete the job.”
The type of thunder that will strike some people for being deceitful amidst the suffering of the masses of Nigerians, is still preparing. When an old man will resort to falsehood and outright sell out, just for his own personal aggradizement, tells volumes about the decayed morals in our society.
