The minister whose people-centric approaches is being hailed by a large section of the citizens, added that despite just being in office barely over one year, the President’s commitment is absolute, and his policies are deliberate and well thought out, and that his love for the country cannot be questioned; soon enough, it will manifest in different areas of their lives.

In a statement on Saturday, the minister acknowledged the numerous evolving challenges that drives the desire to protest, but added that the narratives accompanying the planned protest and its faceless nature resembles those that often leads to destruction and chaos, capable of setting the nation and the good works of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu aback.
