President Bola Tinubu has said that he’s not in a hurry to rebuild Nigeria with his campaign promises.
Tinubu rather called on Nigerians to endure the “baby steps” his government is currently taking in its efforts to rebuild the country.
He made the call during a private visit to the palace of Alake and Egbaland Supreme Ruler Oba Adedotun Gbadebo in Abeokuta, Ogun State on Thursday, June 29.
The President also asked for the prayers of Nigerians to help rebuild the country.
He said:
“What I ask for is prayers that will help the country and I’m determined to help our country, to steer the ship of the nation, build a good team, positive for this country and deliver on all the promises that I have made.
“The hope is recharged, is here. That hope will never fade. That hope will recharge your life in positive manner.
” I’m here still making that pledge of the campaign promise that there is no difference between us and any members of the Nigerian family. I have seen that in France during the discussion and we are the children of the same parents living in the same house, we are only sleeping in different rooms, just recognize that.
“Let us be united, no distraction, we will arrive at the destination, a positive destination for this country and it is all in our hands to make history and I promise that.
“Nigeria will see positive changes as we move along, just go through these baby’s steps of pain, baby steps of pain. I’m taking baby steps as the President, not matching in a hurry, being ready to listen, maintain an open door policy, let the freedom flow, let confidence return to Nigeria.
“This country is the only country that we have. I have been a refugee, I know what it is to be a refugee in another country and my green passport is what I still have now.
“We need your prayers, we need your support, we need your interventions to get our people a changed mind, so that the economy prosperity of this country being opening up will affect all of us positively.”
