Abiodun Faleke, a member of the House of Representatives, has urged Nigerians to be patient with President Bola Tinubu, as he tries to fix the economy.
Faleke made the urge recently while addressing his constituents at a town hall meeting in Ikeja.
According to News Agency of Nigeria, the meeting was organized by the lawmaker to give an account of his stewardship as the representative of the constituency at the National Assembly.
Faleke said Tinubu was working hard to fix the economy and assured that the various economic reforms of the current administration would soon yield the desired results.
He said: “I can assure Nigerians that the president is working hard to fix the economy, and serious work is ongoing to reposition the economy so that citizens can enjoy the dividends of democracy.
“The reformation process is not easy, and that explains why we are experiencing what we are experiencing presently. I appeal to Nigerians to be patient as things will be alright soon.
“Nigeria had wasted a lot of money on fuel subsidy, which favoured only a few. This cartel sabotaged the economy by buying subsidized fuel and selling it to neighbouring countries.
“With this newly- signed budget, which is the president’s first, things will work out fine and citizens will enjoy the economy soon.”
