Nigeria’s Former Senate Chief Whip Urges Patience for Tinubu’s Economic Reforms

Former Senate Chief Whip, Senator Orji Uzor Kalu, has appealed to Nigerians for patience, requesting a two to three-year timeline for President Bola Tinubu’s administration to revitalize the economy. Kalu made these remarks during a courtesy visit to the Ebonyi Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Stanley Okoro-Emegha, in Koli-Edda, Afikpo South Local Government Area of Ebonyi State.

Kalu emphasized that President Tinubu is diligently working to reposition the nation’s economy and restore its past prosperity. He likened the process to cutting a cloth into pieces before sewing, suggesting that the administration is currently in the phase of meticulous planning and preparation.

“The APC government is cutting the cloth into pieces. Before you sew a cloth you will first cut it into pieces before you start sewing the cloth; so, Tinubu is busy cutting the cloth into pieces. So, give us another three years or two years; people are suffering we understand that, give us more two years for the cloth we want to sew to be sewn very well,” Kalu stated.

In related developments, it was disclosed that President Tinubu is set to sign an executive order to discourage Nigerians from hoarding cash. The order aims to encourage citizens to deposit funds currently held outside the banking system, contributing to cash scarcity. Former Governor of Ogun State, Olusegun Osoba, revealed this during an interview, highlighting Tinubu’s commitment to addressing economic challenges.
