President Muhammadu Buhari has again appealed for patience as the government takes appropriate measures to ease hardship created by some policies which are meant to bring overall improvement to the country.
The President made the pledge yesterday, in a video recording sent home from Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, to shore-up support for Senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the upcoming elections, which is taking place a few days ahead.
Buhari said he was fully aware of the hardship of some policies of the government.
He said, I want to once again assure you that I am fully aware of the current hardship you are facing as a result of some policies of the government which are meant to bring overall improvement to the country.
I am appealing to you to exercise further patience as we take appropriate measures to ease these hardships. God willing, there will be light at the end of the tunnel.
In the campaign message to voters, the President specifically called upon our traditional rulers, religious leaders and parents to warn their followers and wards alike, to not allow themselves to be used by a few to foment trouble.
I want to assure you that the Government has taken adequate security measures to allow everyone to come out and cast their votes. I am therefore appealing to everyone to give them the necessary support.
The President, in a statement issued by his spokesman, Garba Shehu, stressed that the APC presidential candidate has demonstrated his commitment to the development of the country and the well-being of its people.
