Save Nigerians from further sufferings, ADC chieftain tells President

An African Democratic Congress (ADC) chieftain, Dr. Femi Majekodunmi, yesterday called on President Muhammadu Buhari to save Nigerians from what he described as ‘unprecedented sufferings’.

The former Social Democratic Party (SDP) chieftain and one-time Ogun State governorship aspirant, who spoke with journalists in Abeokuta, the Ogun State capital, while declaring his intention to contest for the Ogun Central Senatorial seat in the 2019 elections, said it was regrettable that wise counsel from many patriotic Nigerians to the Federal Government to restructure the country as one of the major steps to put the country on the right path had fallen on deaf ears.

In another development, Director-General of Voice of Nigeria (VON), Mr. Osita Okechukwu, has assured Nigerians in Diaspora, especially the people of the South-East Zone, that the Buhari administration is determined to ensure massive infrastructural development of the country.

Okechukwu, who spoke during an interactive session of the yearly World Igbo Congress (WIC) held at Embassy Suites, Nashville Tennessee, at the weekend, said the situation at home was not as bad as being painted and that all hope was not lost on Nigeria.
