Senator Remi Tinubu’s bold remarks against the current APC government which her husband was instrumental in bringing to power has got people talking.
Speaking during the Senate debate on the 2016 budget on Tuesday, she said the budget did not reflect the promise by the APC government to run an all-inclusive government with the women well represented.

Senator @RemiTinubu says she is speaking on behalf of Nigeria women, if the govt doesn’t do something, they will incur the wrath of women.

According to her, “Such comprehensive empowerment requires fund which should be included in the budget for implementation.
Going through the budget for the Federal ministry of women affairs, I discovered that the total allocation to the women ministry is so meager and I think it would be the least allocation allotted to a ministry.”
In the many reactions, some were quick to imply that she’s acting as a mouthpiece for the Jagaban while others think she’s taking responsibility as the Women Affairs committee chairman

If Remi Tinubu had spoken in favor of PMB, there will still be complaints. We need people like her to tell Baba exactly how it is. Democracy

Remi Tinubu blasting Buhari is too transparent. I wish she won't let HER political career be used as a weapon of her husband's all the time.

So because Sen. Remi Tinubu criticized the budget, she has lost interest in PMB's govt. It's better to criticize/correct than to deceive.
