Yoruba elders under the aegis of the Yoruba Council of Elders (YCE), have expressed concerns over the hardship and pains being suffered by the masses under the Bola Tinubu-led administration.
While reiterating their support for the president, the elders, however, called on the Bola Tinubu-led Federal Government to put in place more pragmatic, practical, and visible ways of easing the pains and general hardship which Nigerians are, at present, contending with.
These were part of resolutions of the group at its National Executive Council Emergency meeting held in Ibadan, made available to journalists, Tuesday, by its Secretary-General, Chief Oladipo Oyewole.
The communiqué read: “Rising from an Emergency Meeting on August 10, 2023, the Yoruba Council of Elders (YCE) affirms its total support for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
“However, the Council observes that the suffering in Nigeria at this time is getting sharper and hardship is getting deeper among the masses. The cost of petrol has increased, the cost of transportation and the cost of foodstuffs have gone up.
