In a rare public admission, a presidential aide, Dr Abiodun Essiet, has confirmed that President Bola Tinubu’s administration is acutely aware of the high prices of food items and the hardship they’ve caused Nigerians. The disclosure comes amidst growing public concern over the rising cost of living and the government’s seeming inability to address the issue. According to Essiet, Tinubu has taken a personal interest in the matter and is actively seeking solutions. However, no specific measures or timeline for implementation have been disclosed. This admission provides some relief to Nigerians who have been grappling with soaring food prices, but questions remain about the effectiveness of the government’s response. It remains to be seen if the administration can deliver on its promise to alleviate the hardship facing the average Nigerian.
