The immediate past speaker of the Kogi State House of Assembly, Prince Mathew Kolawole, has appealed for more time for President Bola Tinubu, for him to effectively fix the issues plaguing Nigeria and its economy, News About Nigeria reports.
He made this appeal while speaking in an interview with newsmen in Lokoja on Sunday.
Kolawole noted that President Bola Tinubu inherited a rotten economic system and would need more time to settle down and right the wrongs of the past.
According to him, it is a trying moment for Nigerians and will take a while to overcome the challenges.
He urged the people to exercise a little more patience, adding that the president is working tirelessly to put things right.
Kolawole stated, “The APC government has come to stay to the best of my knowledge. I also strongly believe that we are in a trying moment as far as the nation’s economy and Nigerians are concerned.
“In actual sense, President Tinubu needs more time to settle down fully because of the rot in the system from where we as a nation are coming from. It will take a while for us as a nation to come out of our challenges. The ongoing reforms may be biting hard, but it is a process to take us to our dreamland.
“We have been going through economic reforms, though it has been very harsh on the citizens, but the truth is that every man who has contested for one position or the other has his policy to implement.
“He has his objectives and reasons for contesting. The roadmap of President Tinubu, I can assure will take us out of the woods. When we were running up and down for President Tinubu during the electioneering campaigns, he told us without mincing words that he would reform Nigeria, but as it is today everything we are passing through today is part of the reform.”
