Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, APC, in Oyo State, Alhaji Fatai Ibikunle, has declared that the current economic downturn in the country is temporary.<\/p>\n

Ibikunle made this declaration while speaking with journalists in Ibadan, the Oyo State capital, on Saturday.<\/p>\n

The APC chieftain, while speaking on the planned nationwide protest fixed for August 1, urged the youths in the country to reconsider their planned protest.<\/p>\n

Ibikunle emphasised the need for Nigerians to be patient and support the current administration of President Bola Tinubu during this crucial period.<\/p>\n

The APC chieftain, who previously served as personal assistant to the late Governor Lam Adesina in the state, highlighted the challenges faced by the current administration and the efforts being made to address them.<\/p>\n

He called on youths to understand the complexities involved in steering the nation\u2019s economy back on the path of progress.<\/p>\n

He appealed to the organisers of the protest to give the president time to implement his strategies.<\/p>\n

Ibikunle said: \u201cThough the nation\u2019s economy was on the verge of collapse before Tinubu assumed office, he has, since his assumption of office, been trying to get the economy back on track.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe current hardships are temporary and efforts being made by the administration will soon yield positive results.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe economic policies being implemented would eventually lead to prosperity for all citizens. I urged the youths to join hands with the government in its quest to build a better future for the country.\u201d<\/p>\n
