Vice President Kashim Shettima called on Nigerians to unite behind President Bola Tinubu as he tackles the nation’s pressing challenges. Speaking at the launch of a book by Prof. Modupe Adelabu in Abuja, Shettima reassured citizens that the difficult decisions being implemented by the Tinubu administration would soon bear fruit.
Shettima praised Tinubu’s integrity and commitment to Nigeria’s progress, dispelling any doubts about his intentions. He acknowledged the harsh economic realities but emphasized that the tough measures, like fuel subsidy removal, were necessary for long-term growth.
Addressing the issues in Nigeria’s education system, particularly in the northern region, Shettima stressed the importance of development commissions focusing on reducing the number of out-of-school children. He also highlighted the role of local councils in improving education, urging collaboration with governors.
Shettima’s remarks were supported by other speakers at the event, who underscored the need for reforms in Nigeria’s educational policies to ensure better outcomes, particularly for girls and vulnerable children.
In summary, the Vice President’s message was clear: Nigeria’s challenges are being addressed, and unity is essential for success.
