Minister of Women Affairs, Mrs Uju Kennedy Ohanenye, has urged Nigerians to exercise patience with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu as his administration endeavours to address the nation’s challenges.
Ohanenye made this appeal during a charitable event held in Awka, the capital of Anambra State, where she distributed palliatives to support the less privileged in the community.
The minister’s remarks came as she handed out 5,000 bags of 10 kg rice, 300 gas cylinders, and 500 bags of 50 kg fertilizers, aimed at easing the burden faced by vulnerable families in the area.
During her speech, Ohanenye acknowledged the difficulties many Nigerians are currently experiencing but emphasized that the government’s efforts to improve the situation would take time.
She expressed confidence in Tinubu’s leadership and commitment to transforming the country for the better.
The Minister stated, “I plead with you to be patient with the president. He is doing everything to change the negative practices that have crippled the nation’s economy. Just give the president time; in the next few months, things will begin to improve.
“He needs time to clean up the mess left by previous administrations. Honestly, things were bad before President Tinubu took office, and he is working hard to bring happiness to Nigerians.”
According to her, the Tinubu-led administration has introduced numerous social security initiatives aimed at uplifting Nigerians, especially the poor.
She encouraged individuals to submit their BVN so the government can plan and provide assistance to the less privileged.
“The BVN helps the government identify those who qualify for federal social security palliatives. The aid is meant for the poor, not the rich, who have cornered these resources over the years,” she added.
