In light of impending nationwide protests slated for Thursday, August 1, Senator Jibrin Isah Echocho, representing Kogi East in the National Assembly, has made a heartfelt appeal for calm and patience among the youth of his senatorial district, asserting that the current economic challenges will soon pave the way for brighter days.
The Senator’s statement comes amidst widespread frustration and calls for change due to escalating economic hardships. In a message shared with journalists on Wednesday, Senator Echocho acknowledged the difficulties faced by Nigerians but stressed the importance of trusting President Bola Tinubu’s vision and plans for national development.
Expressing optimism about the president’s capacity to fulfill his promises, Echocho emphasised that the sacrifices currently being made wsre temporary and necessary for long-term improvement in the lives of citizens. He urged the youth to exercise patience and allow time for the president’s reforms to take effect.
Senator Jibrin Isah Echocho listed several measures that the federal government has taken to address issues related to hunger and other pressing challenges, to include: food distribution to various states and local governments across Nigeria; the turnaround maintenance of federal government-owned refineries, set to commence before the end of this financial year; sales of crude oil to Dangote Refinery in Naira to encourage production activities; distribution of fertilizers to farmers, and provision of capital support to market women.
The lawmaker also promised to continue his own comstituency empowerment programs across the nine local government areas of Kogi East, which he has championed for years.
“The government is prioritising the welfare of its citizens and working towards delivering tangible results that will enhance their lives,” Echocho stated. He underscored the critical need for unity and support during these challenging times, recognising that while his appeal was a positive step, more action was required to alleviate the widespread suffering among Nigerians.
He noted that, to bolster the economy and uplift citizens, the government is actively implementing policies aimed at fostering economic growth, supporting small businesses and entrepreneurs, investing in education and skills development, and enhancing access to healthcare and social services. Notably, the President has approved the suspension of tariffs on food imports and the suspension of import duties and taxes on essential food items as measures to combat inflation.
Echocho concluded by reiterating the need for collective unity and support as the nation navigates these turbulent times, emphasising that such solidarity was crucial to overcoming current challenges and building a better future for all Nigerians.
