The Senator Representing Niger East Senatorial Zone in the National Assembly, Mohammed Musa, has assured Nigerians that the policies of the government will soon yield dividends.
The Senate Chairman of the Committee on Finance made the remarks in Suleja town, Niger state at the weekend while distributing cash and food items to 4,100 members of his constituency in the nine local government areas of Niger state.
He hinted that the contributory factor to the hardship can be traced to the previous administration which did not apply the subsidy proceeds to help Nigerians, according to ThisDay.
“The present hardship in the country is also informed by the inability of past administrations to put on ground democratic foundations that would address the yearnings of Nigerians” Musa added.
He assured that President Bola Tinubu is leaving no stone unturned to bring a lasting solution to the challenges being faced by Nigerians.
Musa declared that the present All Progressives Congress government is determined to correct the situation and make the people to enjoy the rewards of subsidy removal and a stable exchange rate of the Naira against other currencies and also bolster the national economy.
He also assured that the National Assembly and the executive arm of government are working seriously on more ways to reduce the sufferings of the people.
“The governments at all levels have put in place policies and programmes to cushion the effects of these hardship on the ordinary Nigerian. Very soon Nigerians will start reaping the rewards of these policies and programmes” he asserted.
“I will continue to attract empowerment programmes to complement those of the state and federal government,” he explained, adding that very soon he will release scholarships to selected students in his constituency.
