Have faith in my ability to deliver, Tinubu begs Nigerians

Worried by the excruciating experience occasioned by his policy reforms, President Bola Tinubu has appealed to the citizens to look beyond the temporary situation and have faith in the ability of his administration to deliver.

The President said that his commitment is to promote the greatest good for the greatest number of people, assuring that he must get back to work in order to make his vision come true.

A presidential aide, O’tega Ogra, on his X handle, formerly Twitter, reposted the Presidency’s post, which was said to have been made some time in July.

The President in the trending video said, “Fellow Nigerians, this period may be hard on us and there’s no doubt that it’s tough on us, but I urge you all to look beyond the present temporary pains and aim at the larger picture.

“All our good and helpful plans are in the works, more importantly, I know that they will work.

“Sadly, there was an unavoidable lag between subsidy removal and these plans coming fully online, however, we are swiftly closing the time gap. I plead with you, please have faith in our ability to deliver and in our concern for your well-being.

“We will get out of this turbulence, and due to the measures we have taken, Nigeria will be better equipped and able to take advantage of the future that awaits her.

“For example, we shall fulfil our promise to make education more affordable to all and provide loans to higher education students who may need them. No Nigerian student will have to abandon higher education because of lack of money.

“Our commitment is to promote the greatest good for the greatest number of our people. On principle, we shall never falter. I assure you, my fellow countrymen and women, that we are exiting the darkness to enter a new and glorious dawn.

“Now I must get back to work in order to make this vision come true. Thank you for listening and may God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria.”
