Former Governor of Sokoto State, Aminu Waziri Tambuwal, has decried the growing economic hardship in the country.
Tambuwal, who said this when he met with former President Olusegun Obasanjo in Abeokuta, Ogun State, added that the situation was getting worse by the day, stressing that there was a need to tackle the challenges headlong.
According to a statement by Obasanjo’s media aide, Kehinde Akinyemi, on Thursday, Tambuwal’s visit was to felicitate with the former president on his 87th birthday.
The former Speaker of the House of Representatives called on Nigerians to be hopeful and always pray for a better Nigeria.
“My clarion call is to Mr President (Bola Ahmed Tinubu) as the situation is getting worse by the day. Mr President should listen to the cries of Nigerians, the country is going through hard times, and things have never been this bad.
“But, he sought this job and he got it, so, he needs to rally and make sure that things are put in better shape for the progress of Nigeria,” Tambuwal said.
