By Deborah Oladejo, Osogbo

The National Secretary of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), Senator Ajibola Bashiru has said that the basis of the programmes being put in place by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu led Federal Government were designed to take back Nigeria to the path of socioeconomic productivity, probity, prudence, accountability and posterity.

Basiru, who spoke at his residence in Osogbo, noted that the President has already taken the bull by the horns right from the day he was sworn-in hence the seamless and steady implementation of the policies to ensure a rebirth in all sectors of the economy.

He urged the citizens to begin to assess the good performance or otherwise of their Governors in their various states as huge funds had been made available to them by the Federal Government to cushion the adverse effects of subsidy, bring succour to masses and champion the welfare and general wellbeing of their people in their respective states.

Bashiru underscored the need to rally round the Tinubu led-government as he continues to strive hard to tackle major challenges in the areas of power, agriculture, education, health, infrastructure among others.

The former Senate Spokesman attributed the ongoing rebirth and sanitisation exercise in all sectors of the economy by the Tinubu led-federal government to the need to reclaim the lost glory and place Nigeria to her rightful position as an African leading light and pacesetter.

His words: “Right from the first day of his inauguration, the President, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu had decided to take the bull by the horns. He has decided to take back Nigeria to the path of productivity, probity, prudence, accountability and posterity, and that is the basis of the programmes that President Tinubu has put in place.

“Starting from the fuel subsidy. Fuel subsidy has become source of corruption for Nigerian Government and it has also become an hindrance to meaningful -productive infrastructural engagement of our people. So, by removal of the fuel subsidy, it made it possible for a huge amount of money to be available not only to the Federal Government but to the State Governments and Local Governments to tackle myriad of infrastructural challenges and welfare of our people. So, any governor that is not performing, kindly ask them what has happened to the huge amount of resources that has been made available for them after the removal of the fuel subsidy.”

The APC National Secretary averred that the President has set aside  “Infrastructural Fund” by which a very huge infrastructural projects are being embarked upon disclosing that one of them is coastal highway that would pass through about eight to nine states.
