Governor Hope Uzodinma has stated that President Bola Tinubu can rescue Nigeria’s economy and make it the fastest-growing one in Africa.
Speaking at an interactive session with journalists in Owerri, also gave two brand new, 14-seater buses to members of the Correspondents’ Chapel and the National Association of Women Journalists, NAWOJ, in Imo State, Uzodinma said journalists need to tell Nigerians the benefits of the policies instead of trumpeting the side effects.
He said;
“Although the populace are experiencing economic hardship occasioned by the policies, they would eventually enjoy the benefits.
“Every discerning Nigerian knows that President Tinubu’s economic policies are sound and that they will salvage the country sooner than later.”
Uzodinma who also insisted that the removal of fuel subsidy and merging of official and parallel exchange rates were courageous steps taken by President Tinubu to strengthen the economy, regretted that instead of some notable Nigerians acknowledging the efforts of President Tinubu, they are busy demarketing the administration through the media.
He also claimed that while the three major presidential candidates promised to end the regime of fuel subsidy, the other two who didn’t win are pretending otherwise.
