President Bola Tinubu addressed the nation unexpectedly in a video message, marking his second speech since taking office.
This comes after his first address was criticized for lacking clear direction on key national issues.
In his latest speech, Tinubu reassured Nigerians that his administration is committed to solving economic problems, improving security, and developing infrastructure.
Reactions to the speech have been mixed.
Some Nigerians are cautiously optimistic, while others remain skeptical and want to see real action.
Nigerians will be watching closely to see if he delivers on his promises.
Fellow Nigerians,
This period may be hard on us and there is no doubt that it is tough on us. But I urge you all to look beyond the present temporary pains and aim at the larger picture.
All our good and helpful plans are in the works. More importantly, I know that they would work. Sadly, there was an unavoidable lag between subsidy removal and these plans coming fully on line.
However, we are swiftly closing the time gap. I plead with you. Please, have faith in our ability to deliver and in our concern for your well-being. We will get out of this turbulence. And due to the measures we have taken, Nigeria will be better equipped and able to take advantage of the future that awaits her.
For example, we shall fulfill our promise to make education more affordable to all and provide loans to higher education students who may need them. No Nigerian student will have to abandon higher education because of lack of money.
Our commitment is to promote the greatest good for the greatest number of our people. On principle, we shall never falter.
I assure you, my fellow countrymen and women, that we are exiting the darkness to enter a new and glorious dawn.
Now, I must get back to work in order to make this vision come true. Thank you for listening and may God bless the Federal
