Daily Trust reports that Tinubu while speaking from his experience as a chief of staff to the former Lagos state governor said the president-elect can be likened to a football manager who delegates and instructs his players on what to do and goes to sit in the dugout until the expiration of the game.

His words:
“I was his chief of staff for four and a half years. I took over from Lai Mohammed. In terms of controlling Asiwaju’s schedule, that was a tough task because he has day and night schedules.
“For those who are going to work with him, he is very nocturnal. I hope he changes. He will wake you up at night. He does his best work in the dead of the night."
Further explaining how Tinubu micromanages his team more than President Buhari, Fashola added that the president allows his team to have fair play after training and coaching.
He added:
“I was speaking with somebody and I said imagine there are two football coaches; President Muhammadu Buhari is the type of football coach that will prepare his team, sit in the dugout and watch them play for 90 minutes. He trusts them to do the work and believes there is nothing he can do.
“Asiwaju would be that kind of coach playing the game with them (in the dugout). Those are the two differences you’ll see. One prepares, and one delegates completely. One delegates and stays with you. and each one has his strength."
