Jimi Agbaje, former governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Lagos, says government at all levels must strive to ameliorate the hardship being experienced by Nigerians.

Agbaje said while President Bola Tinubu is trying to find solutions to the problems of the economy, his approach has worsened the plight of Nigerians.

“There is a limit to how much people can endure. People have accepted the principle that there is no gain without pain but there is a limit to the pain. The truth is that there is an elastic limit,” Agbaje told TheCable.

“Government at all levels must ease the pain of the people while trying to make lasting corrections to the economy. I am not sure that the people can endure for that much longer.”

Agbaje implored government officials to make sacrifices by cutting down on the cost of governance while also ensuring that the palliatives provided get to the most vulnerable in the society.

“The palliatives they are giving out must reach the vulnerable. It must cut across in a way that the people feel some measure of relief. Also, our leaders must lead by example. You cannot ask people to make sacrifice while you are not showing that measure of sacrifice,” he said.

“The issue is not whether he (Tinubu) has performed above or below expectations. The issue is that there is a problem. There were fundamental problems to the economy. He is trying to address it but the reality is that in addressing it, it is causing a lot of hardship. That hardship needs to be ameliorated".

"Whatever decisions have been taken, I know we will not get immediate results. It is going to be medium and long-term. But the people have to be alive to enjoy the medium and long term. I think that is what is missing at this point in time. People cannot bear it much longer.”

I beg to disagree sir, Nigeria and Nigerians are born to suffer, and endure forever.
After all one popular musician sang " suffering and smiling" a long time ago. So no be today we start to endure.

Lol..


When Buhari took over and made life even harder for us from the soft life of PDP that we used to enjoyed. We endured and kept quiet. At some point, we tried to protest and Tinubu used his thighs to make a mess out of the protest. The entire nort8acted like they were enjoying the lifestyle then. After all, their religion forbids them to challenge their leaders.


Today, the North are challenging a president, simple because, he's not a Northerner.


Believe me, whether we will have no food to eat. This country will exist.

IBB came out to say that he's not in support of any plan of military take over. Apparently, the North wants to use military to take back power.


See, the North should allow Tinubu to finish his regime. After all we allowed their incompetent Buhari to finish his regime.

We endured and we kept enduring Buhari and a certain cabal that would use the president signature to sign contracts and other confidential documents, without the olodo knowing.
