Tinubu via a post on his Twitter handle on Wednesday, said the move is a bold and courageous one, adding that the governor has his full support.
He said: “Congratulations to Governor Sanwo-Olu over the Y2021 budget which he appropriately christened” Budget of Rekindled Hope”. This audacious and enterprising budget will empower our people and begin to rebuild Lagos State.
“In particular, I would also like to commend the Governor for the plan to commence the repeal of the Pension Law giving pension packages to former governors and their deputies.
“This is a bold and courageous move by Mr. Governor and I wholeheartedly support him.”
The former governor enjoined all APC loyalists to do the same.
