We avoided it for 40 years. We are all going through the pain now, but for Nigeria not to collapse, we had to remove the subsidy.
In the history of successful nations, there is nothing more vital than the leadership of a nation taking difficult decisions at the right time & for the right reasons. There would have been no money for the sub-nationals. We have to believe in one country; we have to believe in Nigeria.
