Senate President Godswill Akpabio has stated that the All Progressives Congress (APC) administration did not promise Nigerians immediate or “instant miracles” in governance.
He made the remark on Friday during the inauguration of a seven-kilometre road and bridge in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Abuja.
Akpabio explained that instead of quick fixes, the government committed itself to delivering “structural, calculated and deliberate progress” under President Bola Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda.
His comments come amid growing public concerns over the rising cost of living, largely attributed to the removal of fuel subsidy and other recent policy decisions.
The Senate President maintained that the administration is focused on a long-term development strategy aimed at improving citizens’ welfare.
He said: “When we came into office, we did not promise you miracles that would appear from thin air. We promised structural, calculated and deliberate progress. We promised a Renewed Hope Agenda that will touch the lives of every Nigerian citizen, not just in economic statistics but in the reality of their daily struggles.”
