The All-Progressives Congress (APC) UK South-West Caucus has urged Nigerians not to be discouraged given the bold steps being taken by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to change the economic situation of the country.
In a statement jointly signed by the Caucus Chairman Hon. Andrew Taiwo and the secretary Mr. Ayodele Adigun to commemorate the 64th anniversary of Nigeria Independence Day celebration, the caucus maintained that virtually all economies round the world are experiencing meltdown in one form or the other in recent times but the stance of Nigeria current leadership stands out in addressing the basics.
According to the caucus, the Tinubu led administration has refused to give in to economic realities and pressures but rather taken drastic measures to address them.
“Imagine the speed with which qualitative policies with direct bearings on the citizenry are being rolled out, as nearly all facets of the national demography are critically captured for one benefit or the other.
“Frankly speaking the social welfare packages for the artisans both skilled and semi-skilled, small business owners, students, women and others has been heart warming.
“The subsidy removal accruals are being rolled back through the states coupled with the funds allotted directly to the local governments to give a new lease of live and redistribute wealth equitably, it shows a functional thinking faculty of the leadership and worth commendation.
The caucus maintained that if the tempo of result-oriented policies being rolled out is adequately sustained, Nigeria and Nigerians will be better for it shortly.
