A support group of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the Disciples of Jagaban (DOJ), has described the Wednesday fire incident at the Dangote Refinery in Lagos, as an act of sabotage against the Renewed Hope Agenda of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
The DOJ in a statement by its National Coordinator, Abdulhakeem Adegoke Alawuje said, enemies of Nigeria who destroyed the previous governments for selfish gains were still very much around and well positioned to destroy the present one.
Alawuje however called on Nigerians to take sides with their president who is struggling day and night to reposition the dilapidated economy in the overall interest of all, and not saboteurs who want to bring the country to its knees for personal gains.
According to the statement, “On Wednesday, Nigerians were jolted by the news of the burning of Dangote refinery in what looks like a sabotage. Dangote had few days before the unfortunate incident raised an alarm about the gang-up of the International Oil Companies (OICs) against the success of the venture to make Nigeria independent of foreign refined oil.
“We understand the situation at hand. Those who destroyed the previous governments for personal gains and aggrandizement are still fully around and well-positioned to destroy the present one. They are the oil mafia, Health mafia, political scavengers, and so on. Unfortunately, Nigerians are ignorantly working with and helping those who stole away our present and future heritage.

“Many Nigerians would not mind colluding with the enemies within and outside the country to sell their heritage or even put their father’s house on fire just because they hate the country or the person occupying the seat of the president. They simply wish to say, “After all, we told you he will not succeed”.
“Ignorantly and innocently joining the mafias to fight Tinubu or the country will be a very costly error. We cannot afford to embarrass the president who gives endorsements to all citizens, irrespective of ethnic religious, and political affiliations. How do we orchestrate warfare against a president who struggles day and night to reposition the dilapidated economy in the overall interest of all?
“Tinubu is human and cannot be perfect but lashing out his human errors to embarrass him ultimately embarrasses the nation. And that will not only be wickedness but foolishness on our path.
“Nigerians who are seizing the opportunity of economic downturn to unleash hardship on their fellow citizens should fear God. Whatever we do to ourselves negatively may not necessarily affect Tinubu as president. We will all suffer the consequences. Farmers, traders, and private and corporate sectors should beware.
“Without doubt, Tinubu aspires to rescue Nigerians, unfortunately, those he gave access to and who knows his weaknesses are the same people working against him. After all, we all witnessed how a number of his boys rose against him ahead of the 2023 general election with many needless battles.
“My fellow Nigerians, indeed, Tinubu Renewed Hope agenda is real, and for sure, the present challenges will soon disappear with time, just as the previous ones did not last.
“He who drives a car with mouth (theoretically) can never be involved in road mishaps until he practically occupies the driver’s seat. Tinubu is presently in the driver’s seat, let’s support him to drive us to the Promised Land successfully.
“Ruling a nation like Nigeria is beyond theoretical calculations, it needs God’s intervention, leadership competence, and citizens’ support. The absence of any of these factors may abandon us in the wilderness for long, God forbid.
“Tinubu has all the ingredients of a good leader. He is courageous, competent, and determined, we only need to add our inputs to assist him in other to succeed in rescuing the nation,” he said.
