The All Progressives Congress Governor’s Forum has assured Nigerians to exercise patience, adding that it acknowledged that the ongoing reforms and economic policies of President Bola Tinubu administration are experiencing a teething challenge.
Addressing journalists after a closed-door meeting on Wednesday night, the Chairman of the PGF and Imo State Governor, Hope Uzodimma, appealed to Nigerian youths to snub the planned demonstration and allow the president to fix the country.
He said, “We have looked at the various policies of this government, and we acknowledge a teething problem associated with the initial stage of the programme and agree that because we are very hopeful, it is also the solution to the current problem and economic hardship that has befallen our country.
“In a very short time, we are confident that the situation will be restored. Prosperity would come at the end of the day. We use this opportunity to advise our young boys and girls, young men and women, to desist from being instigated into causing crisis or chaos in the country.
“Already, Nigerians have suffered enough. The global economic recession, insecurity in Nigeria, political tension occasioned by instigations and campaigns of calumny by the opposition party, and social media attacks on various policies of the government.
“We want to advise for the interest of the country and a show of patriotism. Our citizens must take ownership of this country. We have no other country we can call our own. We took the opportunity also to agree to explain to the larger Nigerians that this government is doing well.”
