Nigeria’s former Minister of Youth and Sports Development, Solomon Dalung, has criticised the role of Wale Edun in President Bola Tinubu’s administration, describing him as “a misfit” within the government.
Speaking on the matter, Dalung alleged that Edun remained in his position despite reservations, only reaching a breaking point when his personal integrity was, in his words, at risk.
Dalung did not elaborate on the specific circumstances behind his claim but suggested that tensions within the administration may have influenced Edun’s stance.
There has been no immediate response from Edun or the presidency regarding the remarks.
The comments come amid ongoing scrutiny of economic management and policy direction under Tinubu’s government, with critics and supporters divided over the administration’s performance.
