The Elders stressed the importance of prioritizing the well-being of citizens and ensuring that the benefits of democracy are effectively delivered to the grassroots level for a better quality of life.
They highlighted the urgent need for short-term relief measures to alleviate the suffering of the people and urged President Tinubu’s administration to focus on both immediate and long-term strategies for national development.
The YCE underscored the importance of prompt government intervention to improve the living conditions of all Nigerians and restore comfort and harmony across the country, emphasizing the bitter reality of the current state of affairs.
The Elders council called on the Presidency to take swift action to provide relief to all Nigerians and address the pressing needs of the population without delay.
