Economic Hardship: PDP Govs Press Tinubu for Immediate Policy Review

Governors elected on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) have asked President Bola Tinubu to “urgently” review his economic policies that are causing hardship for citizens.

The governors spoke in a communiqué issued at the end of a two-day meeting held at the Plateau state government house in Jos.

Bala Mohammed, chairman of the PDP Governors’ Forum, signed the communiqué.

The governors asked Tinubu to “re-examine macroeconomics and fiscal policies that will address the welfare and well-being of Nigerians”.

“The forum empathises with Nigerians who are groaning under the oppressive economic hardship foisted on the nation by the policies and decisions of the APC-led federal government,” the communiqué reads.

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

“The forum wishes to pledge that all PDP governors will continue to aggressively pursue policies and programs that will reduce the hardship and ensure progress and development.”
