Hardship:Oshiomhole begs Nigerians to exercise patience with president Tinubu

 

Senator Adams Oshiomhole has urged Nigerians to be patient with President Bola Tinubu’s administration.

Oshiomhole made this statement during an interview on Channels Television’s “Sunday Politics.” His comments followed the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) report indicating that inflation reached 34.19 percent in June 2024. The high cost of living has been attributed to the floating of the naira and the removal of the fuel subsidy by the current administration.

Oshiomhole, a former governor who now represents Edo North in the Senate, expressed optimism about Tinubu’s policies, urging patience as they take effect.

 

“You have to agree that some of the policy initiatives will require more than a year to materialize,” he said. “What would the president gain by resorting to policy choices that are unlikely to deliver comfort in the long run?”

 

He added, “So, I think for me, it is about having faith that in the long run, these things will work out.”
