To him, “With the biting hardship in the country, we are appealing to everyone for understanding and join hands with  the action of this regime to restore the economy back to its feet.

“Concerning high cost of products including pharmaceutical products, which are going out of the reach most people on daily basis, we need to cherish our traditional medicine and also have it at the back of our minds that all this medicine been brought to us to use from the Western world they are also from leaves and herbs as well.

“On the hardship the country is presently facing, I believe it’s a phase and it will pass but before then, I want to encourage us all to keep praying for the country. Let us all work together to support the government of the day to make things better, we hope the Naira that is appreciating will continue to appreciate and price will nosedive.

“We all need to say no to crime because those that are thinking of committing crimes are only making things worse.”

Likewise he stressed that, “our natural herbs are not bad at all and we need to really learn to put them to use by giving it a chance to see the light of day by those in need of medications so that they can realise that they don’t  have to depend their life alone on western drugs whereas the cure they need is at the backyard of their house.”
