A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Osun, Olatunbosun Oyintiloye, has appealed to President Bola Tinubu to act swiftly and save the masses from further hardship.
Oyintiloye said that what Nigerians are experiencing at the moment makes it mandatory for the President to act faster and employ strategies that would bring immediate relief.
Oyintiloye, a former lawmaker, expressed confidence in President Tinubu’s ability to alleviate the suffering of the masses while speaking with journalists on Sunday in Osogbo.
However, he suggested that strategies that would bring instant relief should be adopted.
He also noted the economic hardship the masses are currently facing due to the increase in pump prices, which has led to the rise in food prices, electricity tariffs, cooking gas costs, and other essentials, thus making life unbearable for Nigerians.
He said the recent increase in the pump price has worsened the hardship Nigerian masses are contending with.
In his words, “Nigerians are hopeful that there will be a positive turnaround in the country, but measures to achieve this must be accelerated.
“There is no doubt that the president is doing everything humanly possible to alleviate the suffering of the masses, but a faster approach must be considered.
“The president should ensure that every bureaucratic bottleneck impeding the swift implementation of policies that will put smiles on the faces of the masses is removed.
“The economic suffering the masses are currently going through is becoming unbearable, and the president must act fast.”
