The Special Adviser to President Bola Tinubu on Media and Public Communications, Sunday Dare, has called on Nigerians to remain patient despite the current economic hardships, assuring that the President’s reforms are starting to yield positive results.
Speaking at the Federal Capital Territory chapter’s annual conference of the Nigerian Institute of Public Relations in Abuja, Dare acknowledged the difficulties citizens face but emphasized that Tinubu’s administration is committed to implementing long-term solutions.
Dare likened the President’s approach to “taking one stitch now to avoid nine stitches later,” stressing Tinubu’s awareness of the people’s struggles and his dedication to finding solutions
He said, “My job and that of the presidential media team is to try and win Nigerians over to understand why this is taking place.
“Beyond that, we are in the process of reforms covering several sectors, driven largely by the eight-point agenda of President Bola Tinubu. He is a President who has chosen the road less travelled.
“Very often, it is the path that has challenges, very difficult but most certainly leads to the desired destination. The reforms in the fiscal and monetary, oil, manufacturing, power and almost 10 other sectors are ongoing. We are beginning to see the benefits of these reforms.
“We also have a President who believes failure to take one stitch now will mean we are going to take nine stitches down the road. But I believe one stitch now is better.
“He is also a President who is mindful of the difficulties the people are going through and is working arduously to provide solutions.”
In his remarks, NIPR President Dr. Ike Neliaku highlighted the need to improve Nigeria’s global reputation to attract foreign investment.
“Public Relations builds and promotes reputation. And we are saying that we must take the reputation of our nation seriously.
“It is only when your reputation is high that you can get investors to come in and invest in the economy.
“If your economy does not have respect for the way things ought to be done, nobody will invest in such an economy,” he stated.
