Senator Mohammed Ali Ndume, wey dey represent Borno South for National Assembly, don raise alarm say some people wey dey close to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu dey push harmful reforms and policies wey dey make life hard for Nigerians.
Ndume talk say the prices of fuel, food, and essential goods and services don increase so much that average Nigerians and the poor no fit afford dem again. He accuse some bad elements among Tinubu’s advisers of promoting policies wey dey worsen inflation and exchange rate instead of controlling dem.
He say, ‘I personally believe President Bola Ahmed Tinubu mean well for Nigeria and Nigerians. I know this because I know what he stands for. But some of his advisers who don’t mean well to the people of this country give him wrong advice.’ Ndume appeal to Tinubu to resist these bad people who want to pitch the people against his administration.
He explain say many families in Borno State no fit feed again, and farmers no fit transport their farm products because of the high cost of transportation. ‘Those who manage to transport goods pass the costs onto consumers, making food items too expensive. People can’t even afford to travel anymore. For instance, traveling by road from Abuja to Maiduguri is now a fortune. How many people can afford that?’ he ask.
Ndume urge President Tinubu to address these issues urgently as soon as he return to Nigeria. He emphasize say the purchasing power of Nigerians is too poor, and they can’t afford the things being pushed on them every day by enemies of the state.
