The People’s Democratic Party (PDP) has strongly criticized President Bola Tinubu for conferring Nigeria’s second-highest national honour, the Grand Commander of the Order of the Niger (GCON), on Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
The main opposition party who questioned the rationale behind bestowing such a prestigious accolade on a foreign leader described the gesture as a “Misplaced priority.”
Timothy Osadolor, the PDP’s Deputy National Youth Leader, expressed concerns over the President’s decision.
He argued that it did little to address Nigeria’s pressing domestic challenges.
“National honours should not be handed out frivolously in the name of friendship.”
It’s unclear what significant contribution the Indian Prime Minister has made to warrant this recognition.
“This is one of our highest national awards, and it seems unjustified,” Osadolor stated.
Osadolor further suggested that Tinubu could have used the occasion to draw insights from Modi’s economic strategies rather than giving out symbolic awards.
“It would have made more sense for Tinubu to engage Modi on how India has transitioned from poverty to becoming one of the fastest-growing economies.
“Indian leaders now hold prominent positions in global tech companies, and their presence in Silicon Valley is substantial.
“Instead of giving unnecessary awards, Tinubu should have sought guidance on how to strengthen Nigeria’s economy,” he added.
