President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has said that the socio-economic challenges rocking the nation should energize and rekindle citizens love and faith in the promise of Nigeria.
He stated this during a statewide broadcast to address Nigerians for the year 2024.
The president said he’s aware of the economic challenges facing. He said “I am well aware that for some time now the conversations and debates have centred on the rising cost of living, high inflation which is now above 28% and the unacceptable high under-employment rate.
“From the boardrooms at Broad Street in Lagos to the main-streets of Kano and Nembe Creeks in Bayelsa, I hear the groans of Nigerians who work hard every day to provide for themselves and their families.
“I am not oblivious to the expressed and sometimes unexpressed frustrations of my fellow citizens. I know for a fact that some of our compatriots are even asking if this is how our administration wants to renew their h ope.”
The president however promised that the most vulnerable and the working people shall not be neglected.
“The socio-economic challenges of today should energize and rekindle our love and faith in the promise of Nigeria. Our current circumstances should make us resolve to work better for the good of our beloved nation. Our situation should make us resolve that this new year 2024, each and everyone of us will commit to be better citizens.
“The economic aspirations and the material well-being of the poor, the most vulnerable and the working people shall not be neglected”.
