The Bishop of Sokoto Catholic Diocese and Founder of the Kukah Centre, Reverend Matthew Kukah visited President Bola Tinubu at the state house in Abuja.<\/p>\n

Addressing State House Correspondents shortly after meeting with President Bola Tinubu at the Presidential Villa, the Bishop said one year is not enough to pass judgement on President Tinubu\u2019s government.<\/p>\n

Kukah said while the administration is providing solutions to the myriad of the challenges, Nigerians need to get a sense of how soon they expect to breathe a sigh of relief.<\/p>\n

He, however, said that the government needs to communicate to Nigerians when it will fix the current socio economic challenges in the country.<\/p>\n

According to him Nigerians are in various levels of pains.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m sure that many people will tell you that one year is not enough to make a judgement. However, from where we all stand, we know that we are all in a very difficult situation.<\/p>\n

\u201cNigerians are in various levels of pain and they are pains that are unintended. But, they are as a result of certain policy decisions that hopefully, with time, can be amended in order to serve the welfare of ordinary people,\u201d Bishop Kukah explained.<\/p>\n

He said it is the responsibility of the government to ensure better living conditions and security of the citizens.<\/p>\n

\u201cI believe that the essence of government is to guarantee the welfare and security of ordinary citizens. I believe that the times that we are in are very very difficult times, and nobody should be under any illusion.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut, there are also times for renewal. We just need to commit ourselves to the fact that building a good society takes a lot of time. It\u2019s not something that is done in one lifetime. And for me, the most important thing is for us to continue on the building blocks of the things that we think are being done well.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy argument has always been that the government needs to very quickly improve the quality of communication so that Nigerians can at least get a sense of how long is it going to be before food is ready.\u201d<\/p>\n

On the current crisis in Rivers State, Bishop Kukah said he believes Fubara and Wike will fix their problems.<\/p>\n

According to him, it is the ordinary people that are worrying over what is happening in Rivers State, but the politicians have a way of settling themselves.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is politics. I\u2019m very hopeful, we ordinary people cry more than the bereaved. The important thing is that politicians will fix their problems.<\/p>\n

\u201cRivers State is a place that is very dear to me because I have been associating with them for a very long time. But, look, when politicians fight, don\u2019t get carried away because they have their capacity to fix their quarrels.<\/p>\n

\u201cI hope and pray that Rivers State will sooner than later reposition itself because it is not an insignificant part of Nigeria,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
