Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Adamu Garba, on Wednesday, joined many Nigerians to complain about the prevailing economic hardships in the country.<\/p>\n

Garba, who has been a prominent supporter of the President Bola Tinubu administration, lamented that the economic hardship is really biting hard.<\/p>\n

According to him, his wife bought bags of rice on Tuesday at N75,000.00 each, whereas it was sold at N53,000.00 in late December.<\/p>\n

In a post on his X handle, the APC chieftain<\/p>\n

urged leaders to be sensitive to the plight of the ordinary people, saying some unnecessary foreign travels, displays of extravagant paraphernalia is not good at the moment.<\/p>\n

He wrote, \u201cI think with the current spate of pain and anger due to the high cost of living, some government officials, especially political office holders need to show some restraint from public display of grandiosity.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is affecting the image of the government negatively in front of the public.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe economy is really biting hard. My wife bought bags of rice 75k each, yesterday, it was 53k in late December. It is tough out there. All leaders need to be sensitive to the plight of the ordinary people.<\/p>\n

\u201cSome unnecessary foreign travels, displays of extravagant paraphernalia is not good at this time.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn addition to the measure\u2019s government is taking to control the situation, public office holders need to not distort the process by expressing extravagance or attending spend-leisure events that add no direct value to addressing the current situation.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe shall overcome and Nigerian Economy under President Tinubu will be stronger than ever insha Allah.\u201d<\/p>\n
