…assures of better tomorrow
…we shall fulfill all our promises
President Bola Tinubu has, again, pleaded with Nigerians to have faith in his administration, assuring the country will overcome present challenges.
In an official video released by the State House on Wednesday, the President acknowledged the current hardships caused by the removal of fuel subsidy.
He assured that the measures the government has taken would get the country out of its present challenges
“Fellow Nigerians, this period may be hard on us and there’s no doubt that it is tough on us but I urge you all to look beyond the present temporary pains and aim at the larger picture.
“All our good and helpful plans are in the works. More importantly, I know that they would work. Sadly, there was an avoidable lag between subsidy removal and these plans coming fully on line.
“I plead with you, please, have faith in our ability to deliver and in our concern for your well-being. We will get out of this turbulence and due to the measures we have taken, Nigeria will be better equipped and able to take advantage of the future that awaits her.
“For example, we shall fulfill our promise to make education more affordable to all and provide loans to higher education students who may need them. No Nigerian students will have to abandon higher education system because of lack of money.
“Our commitment is to promote the greatest good for the greatest number of our people. On principle, we shall never falter, I assure you, my fellow countrymen and women, that we are exiting the darkness to enter a new and glorious dawn. Now, I must get back to work in order to make this vision come true”, he said.
This marks the second time the President would address Nigerians amid the lingering tension in some parts of the country.
