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.”

DAILY POST recalls that mid-last week, the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) fixed the pump price of Motor Spirit (PMS) at N855 per litre.

The increase, however, forced most filling stations to raise their pump prices to between N1,100 and N1,200, depending on the availability of PMS.

Oyintiloye also urged the president to address the delay in implementing the suspension of customs duties and taxes on imported food items two months after the initiative was announced.

He added that since the initiative was intended to combat rising food inflation across the country, there should not be any delay in its implementation.

Oyintiloye recalled that on August 7, 2024, the Comptroller-General of Customs, Bashir Adeniyi, assured that the implementation of the policy would commence the following week once the guidelines were ready, lamenting that, up until now, the policy has yet to be implemented.

He appealed to those responsible for drafting the guidelines for the policy’s implementation to do the needful, adding that the initiative, when implemented, would lower food prices without affecting local production.

He urged Nigerians to continue ing the President, noting that while the policies being implemented might seem painful at the moment, they will be of great benefit in the long run.

The hardship in the country wan almost dey be like sey we dey for those periods after 1st rapture.

Great tribulations, yea?

It’s hitting everyone so hard.

Before those with “have extra streams of income and plant your food” mantra land here, that even your extra streams are overheating and almost coming in trickles that are barely felt because of the high cost of living.

Pray so hard to not fall ill or have an ill relative this period. 🙏🤲

Ordinary malaria, to buy original drugs and satisfy your poor appetite in 3 days go wan cost you 20kpa.
Something wey the least 5k go run before with better oranges, apples and bananas.

Nigeria cannot be saved unless it can endure the hardship and come out of the other side.
The chickens have come home to roost, there is no ther medicine or solution but pain. Anyone who says otherwise is either ignorant or playing to the gallery.
The pain may not save Nigeria we hope it does but I can guarantee you 100% that if Nigeria decides it does not or cannot endure the pain it’s end is assured.

Softmirror:
After hardship there will be ease. Be patient!

Really?

But the hardship in the country has been increasing 😰😭
Go to hospitals and see for yourselves, sirs/mas.

You and I may be able to pull through.
For how long should the very poor be patient?

A 24 year old diagnosed of cancer, with an estimated starting bill of 800k before it metastasizes should wait how long, after waiting at home for about 3 years due to financial constraint; hoping the tumor and sores go off until his presentation to the hospital recently? 😥

Anecdotes

Go ask Rehoboam what he told the people who were complaining of hardship, taxes, et Al...

1 Kings 12:10
[10]And the young men that were grown up with him spake unto him, saying, Thus shalt thou speak unto this people that spake unto thee, saying, Thy father made our yoke heavy, but make thou it lighter unto us; thus shalt thou say unto them, My little finger shall be thicker than my father's loins.

Solution: Every Region: To Your Tents... We don't think people are going to keep MUTE until 2027!

Waiting for 2027 to watch how people kill themselves for politician’s.

Rule of thumb for the present and future generations. Never solely depend on the Nigerian government for anything.


Don’t think any politician is or will ever be Nigeria’s messiah.

Work a solution for yourself or die complaining regime after regime.

Watching the trend, nothing ever got better since 1999. Just deterioration in every aspect.

Thiefnubuu is an ineffectual buffoon who has zero knowledge about the economy or how to run a state. The only thing the cocaine pusher know how to do very well to a large extent is looting, stealing and grabbing.
He doesn't know shit. I am surprised that Buhari is better than this idiot wearing infinity cap. shocked shocked shocked shocked
E shock me.
He should not rig himself in again the way he did last year. Otherwise, it will attributed to the Yorubas the disintegration of Nigeria.

The situation of Nigeria is like a man with cancer. You can attempt to treat it and endure the pain of cancer treatment, you may cure your cancer or the treatment may fail despite the pain but 1) the quicker you embrace the treatment the better your odds of success and 2) if you say you don’t want to endure the pain of cancer treatment, your death is assured and it will come with pain.
