Hardship: Review your economic policies urgently – PDP governors to Tinubu

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Governors’ Forum has urged President Bola Tinubu to review his economic policies.

The Governors, rising from a meeting in Jos, Plateau State on Saturday, expressed worry over the economic hardship on the nation.

Expressing concerns over the state of the nation caused by policies of the All Progressives Congress-led government, the Governors called on Tinubu to review Nigeria’s macroeconomic and fiscal decisions.

Newspot recalls that on assumption of office, Tinubu halted the payment of fuel subsidy and floated the naira, among other reforms. These policies have led to the escalation of the cost of living.

However, the PDP leaders want the policies readjusted as they believe doing so will address the welfare and well-being of Nigerians.

“The forum calls on the president to urgently review both macroeconomic and fiscal policies that will address the welfare and well-being of Nigerians.”
