“In this season of high fuel price, I want to plead with our people to exercise some patience. We are all jointly experiencing the pain.

“All those intemperate attacks against the new government of President Bola Tinubu should stop. Let’s await the palliatives as his government has promised.

“Let’s await the palliatives that will flow from each state as more money is channeled to them from the subsidy savings.

“We cannot go back to the hyper fraudulent subsidy regime where we were spending more money on petrol than on roads, education and health. My people, patience, patience please. I beg you all.

“No country has ever made progress without the people going through some pains. Our country under Tinubu’s watch shall certainly excel.”
