A video has surfaced in which President Bola Tinubu made a passionate appeal to Nigerians to exercise patience over the biting economic conditions in the country.
In the video posted by the official X handle of the President, which did not reference the #EndBadGovernance protest, the president affirmed that the present suffering is temporary.
Tinubu conceded that there is an unavoidable lag between the removal of the petrol subsidy and the coming to fruition of the policies to ameliorate the effects.
The president expressed his commitment to ensuring the greater good for a greater number of people, assuring that there will be a glorious dawn after the current “darkness.”
He stated, “Fellow Nigerians, this period may be hard on us, and there’s no doubt that it’s 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, and more importantly, I know that they will work.
