Tinubu Working Hard To End Hardship – Gov Sule

Nasarawa State Governor Abdullahi Sule has called on Nigerians to be patient as President Bola Tinubu is working hard to end the prevailing hardship across the country.

Governor Sule made the call during the opening ceremony and fund raising for the new central mosque complex in Nassarawa, headquarters of Nassarawa local government area of the state at the weekend.

He said President Tinubu was deeply saddened by the hardship occasioned by the surge in food prices and the general high cost of living, adding that the president was putting in place necessary mechanisms towards addressing the crisis.

“We are all aware of the prevailing challenges across the country. There is hunger occasioned by the high cost of food items, as well as economic hardship. Just like President Tinubu appealed to Nigerians to be patient, I am also adding my voice by appealing to Nigerians to remain patient. Government is working hard towards addressing these challenges,” he assured.

He also said all the 36 state governors and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) administration are also working hard to complement the president’s effort in curtailing the menace.

Also speaking on the development, the Sultan of Sokoto, Muhammadu Saad Abubakar III, called on the Muslim faithful to continue to pray for leaders to enable them to navigate the country through its many crises.

The sultan said it was better if the people prayed for their leaders, especially in a moment such as presently being experienced across Nigeria.

“We are always calling on Muslims to continue to pray for our leaders for them to succeed.  If you pray for a leader and he is able to deliver good leadership, the citizens would benefit. But if you leave the leaders along and they are not able to deliver, it’s the citizens that would suffer. It’s therefore imperative that we continue to pray for our leaders for them to be able to discharge the responsibilities vested upon them by God,” he stated.

He urged Muslims in the country to redouble their prayers for the leaders and country during the forthcoming Ramadan.

“We are aware that our country is now facing hard times. We have said this several times. Our responsibility is to pray for our leaders and to draw their attention to the plight of the people.  We draw their attention on a daily basis not because they are not aware of the situation of the people but for them to understand that God will put them to account,” he added.
