Tinubu Means Well for Nigerians, North – Shettima | Daily Report Nigeria

 

Vice-President Kashim Shettima has appealed to Nigerians to support the policies and programs of President Bola Tinubu’s administration, insisting that the President means well for the country.

Shettima stated this when he received representatives of media practitioners from the northern part of the country on a courtesy visit at the Presidential Villa, Abuja. He emphasized that President Tinubu is neither anti-north nor anti-Islam, citing appointments to key positions in Federal Government Ministries, Departments, and Agencies (MDAs) as evidence.

The Vice President acknowledged the right of citizens to protest but noted that it has its demerits. “Protest is the right of the people, but let it be known that historically, it has been hijacked by unscrupulous elements,” he said.

Shettima highlighted the Resettlement Scheme for Persons Impacted by Conflict (RSPIC) and the creation of the Ministry of Livestock Development as examples of the administration’s initiatives to address issues confronting the northern region.

“President Tinubu means well for the North. Let us disabuse the minds of our people who have been misinformed that the President does not like the North,” he added.

He appealed to the media practitioners to mobilize people to leverage opportunities offered by the Federal Government to transform lives and livelihoods.

“I am really soliciting your prayers and support for us at this time in the history of our country. This is not the time to protest. We in the north need to promote actions and ideals that are critical to the development of our country; we cannot allow things to degenerate.” He said.
