The All Progressives Congress (APC) Governors Forum has appealed to Nigerians to support and understand that the Buhari Administration strives towards meeting genuine national aspirations for better and prosperous Nigeria.
Chairman of the Forum, Governor Rochas Okorocha of Imo state made the appeal while briefing newsmen after a closed-door meeting between President Muhammadu Buhari and members of the Forum. While restating their resolve to support the President in the implementation of the Change Nigeria project, the Governor assured Nigerians that their suffering will soon be over.
A statement by the governors read “There is no surgery that is not painful. Nigeria is going through a very serious economic surgery and that is the pains we are experiencing. We share the pains of Nigerians, every human being must feel it.
We also feel what they are going through but we are asking for a little patience. Let us do things the right way and do it once and for all. “I am sure that by next year, you will begin to see changes, the price of rice will drop, prices of dollars will begin to stabilize and we will see a lot of challenges.
But at this painful moment, nobody likes it. “It is like a woman in the labour room, when she is in the labour room there is no joy but she has to pass through that moment and that moment she doesn’t wear her high heel shoes, no makeup, no champagne, no party she is going through a process but shortly after that process joy cometh once she sees the child. So Nigerians should bear with us as a government.
