By ARMSTRONG ALLAHMAGANI, Bauchi –
Edo State Governor, Godwin Obaseki, has lamented that the suffering of Nigerians currently is unprecedented, pointing out that prices of food items in the country are on the increase.
He stated this in an interview with journalists at the end of a closed-door meeting he, alongside the former Akwa Ibom State Governor, Emmanuel Udom, had with Bauchi State Governor, Bala Mohammed, at the Ramat House, on Thursday.
Obaseki said that leaders in Nigeria must stop lamenting about the situation in the country at the moment and think of what to do to address the problems.
“Things are very difficult as we know at this point in time. Nigerians are suffering, and the suffering is unprecedented.
“But I think, we should stop lamenting and think of what to do as leaders to confront the issues we are facing to reduce the sufferings of our people and put more food on their tables.
“The year is coming to an end and the prices of food items are going up and what can we, as PDP governors do to ameliorate the sufferings of our people. These are some of the things we talked about while preserving the unity of this country,” he said.
