Power Deficit In Borno Will Soon Be Addressed – Shettima

Vice President Kashim Shettima has assured of President Bola Tinubu’s commitment to massively boost Nigeria’s infrastructural needs by focusing on the basic needs and requirements of the nation.

VP Shettima gave the assurance on Tuesday at his residence in Maiduguri, when he hosted members of the Borno Elders Forum, members of the All Progressives Congress (APC), and other stakeholders to Ramadan Iftar.

Shettima, in a statement by his media aide, Stanley Nkwocha, called for continued support for the Tinubu administration by all Nigerians, just as he said the government’s policies would be immensely beneficial to all and sundry in no distant time.

He specifically cited the power supply challenge in Maiduguri and some parts of Borno State which he noted to have caught the President’s attention, and thus directed that the situation be immediately addressed.

“We owe it to this President to be loyal and law-abiding citizens. He has a total grasp of the situation, challenges and, indeed, the prospects we have as a nation. A careful look at our nation’s economy will show a gradual bouncing back on most frontiers.
