Former Minister of Lands, Housing and Urban Development, Nduese Essien, has appealed to President Bola Tinubu to examine his policies before implementation.

His warning comes following the hunger crisis facing many Nigerians as a result of the policies by the Tinubu administration.

Essien claimed the crises have worsened, prices continue to skyrocket, and inflation is causing millions of citizens to struggle in hardship.

The federal lawmaker in a statement issued on Wednesday criticized the removal of fuel subsidy and other economic policies of the Tinubu administration.

According to him, should the situation continue, Nigerians may lose their patience and an uproar may occur leaving the country in a terrible state,

“The level of suffering across the country is unprecedented, except perhaps during the Nigerian Civil War. Families are struggling to meet basic needs. The policies, while perhaps well-intentioned, are exacerbating poverty, increasing inflation, and hurting the most vulnerable among us.

“Our leaders cannot continue to fritter the commonwealth of the country recklessly and ask the people to make sacrifices.

“If urgent action is not taken to stem the hunger, poverty, and discontent in the country, we risk losing the patience of the people, and that could result in dire consequences”, he warned.
