National chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, has assured Nigerians that the economic challenges facing the country will soon be over.
Ganduje gave the assurance amidst a nationwide protest against hunger and pervasive hardship which began on August 1.
The APC national chairman, while addressing a delegation of APC USA in his office on Wednesday, also said President Bola Tinubu is working so hard to improve the living conditions of Nigerians.
He said the present hardship is not peculiar to Nigeria, adding that many developed economies of the world are facing turbulence in one way or the other.
“There’s no doubt, as a developing country, even the so-called developed economists, they have their turbulence in one way or the other,” Ganduje told the five-member delegation.
“So, it’s not surprising that Nigeria is having its own shell of the problem. This is not the first time.
“Whenever there is a reform agenda, obstacles must be on the way, as a result, people must suffer in one way or the other.
“But, in the long run, everything will be according to the plan. We are aware that our president, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, came in to introduce reforms.”
The leader of the APC USA team, Prof. Adesegun Labinjo, irreducible Nigerians to support President Tinubu in his quest to pilot the economy out of the woods.
“In the face of all the turmoil that the sponsor of the ongoing protests projected will happen or is happening in Nigeria, we’re here to support our President, Dr. Ganduje, our party, and its leadership,” he said.
