Festus Keyamo, the recently-retired Minister of State for Labour and Employment, addressed a message to Nigerians on Saturday in the midst of their misery.
Keyamo pleaded for Nigerians to put up with the hardships of President Bola Tinubu’s efforts to reposition Nigeria.
He asserted that Tinubu was repositioning Nigeria’s economy to make it better, stronger, and more lively.
Tweeting, Keyamo wrote: “If a patient has a malignant tumour, the patient has to endure the pains of surgery or some chemotherapy before the patient can be hale and hearty again.
“What is required are pain relievers as these treatments are being administered.
“That is the situation we find ourselves today in Nigeria.
“We must endure the pains of the steps @officialABAT has taken to reposition our economy to a healthy and vibrant one.
“The entire world has acknowledged this. The pain relievers are exactly what the National Economic Council has recommended for implementation.”
