That is the ultimate for the people. If the inflation is not tamed, no matter what is done, people will not feel the impact.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSecondly, President Tinubu should start laying the foundation for electricity. When he became the president, I told him.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen former President Muhammadu Buhari was in office for eight years, I told one of his former colleagues that the president can only be successful if he has a one-point agenda: fix electricity and link it to manufacturers. I am telling President Bola Tinubu the same thing.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf you want your name to be in the sound of time, fix power and electricity. We will continue to remember him as one of the greatest presidents ever. Let power be available, especially for manufacturers,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n<p>in April, Nigeria\u2019s inflation cooled off on a month-on-month basis despite skyrocketing market prices of goods and services.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Nigeria is among the countries with the largest electricity access deficit, with around 13.2 million customers in a population of over 200 million grappling with about 5,000 megawatts of electricity supply nationwide.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Nigeria<\/span> Follow <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Africa-Press<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Nigeria.
