Hardship: Be more sensitive, drop policies unfavorable to Nigerians – Shettima to Tinubu

Comrade Yerima Shettima, the national president, Arewa Youth
Consultative Forum, AYCF, has urged President Bola Tinubu-led government to be
more sensitive to the plight of Nigerians and introduce favorable policies.

 

In an interview with Sun, Shettima said some of the policies
of the present administration do not give hope to the common Nigerians.

 

According to him, “there is nothing bad in dropping a policy
that does not give hope to the people”.

 

“They should come up with policies that will allow Nigerians
to breathe”.

 

Shettima further said, “that an economic policy has worked
somewhere successfully does not mean it must work here in Nigeria. So, the
government must be very sensitive concerning the policy models they import into
our situation.

 

“This country is hugely blessed and there is no reason for
Nigerians to be in this mess if the government decides to be more sensitive to
the plight of the people. Yes, there is hunger, there is insecurity and
Nigerians want to see gradual progress taking place.

 

“Yes, the time may still be too short for an objective
assessment of this government, yet something better than what Nigerians are
experiencing is possible.

 

“So, the onus is still on the government to raise the
leadership bar that will inspire hope on the people”.

 

He, however, blamed the current economic woes on the
immediate past government led by Mohammed Buhari, saying it will take years to
correct their errors.

 

“The reality as I have said is that the government cannot
reverse the damage of the Buhari regime as easily as most Nigerians think.

 

“They cannot even reverse all the mess in four years, but
Nigerians should begin to see conscious relief, improvement and the government
coming up with policies that give hope”, he added.
