Aminu Tambuwal, senator representing Sokoto South, says President Bola Tinubu should listen to the cries of Nigerians as the economic situation in the country bites harder.
The National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) recently announced that food inflation has hit 35.4 percent, with prices of items skyrocketing on the back of the president’s economic policies.
The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) held a nationwide protest on February 27 against the economic situation in the country and the failure of the government to implement the agreement with workers.
Speaking in Abeokuta, the Ogun state capital, on Thursday, Tambuwal appealed to Nigerians not to get despondent and lose hope.
The former governor of Sokoto added that the economy will soon bounce back into a favourable position.
“My clarion call is to Mr. President as the situation is getting worse by the day,. Mr President should listen to the cries of Nigerians, the country is going through hard times, and things have never been this bad.”
“But, he sought this job and he got it, so, he needs to rally and make sure that things are put in better shape for the progress of Nigeria.”
