Odusile, who made the call while reviewing the one-year administration of the APC-led government in Abuja on Saturday, said the president needed to act quickly to address the untold hardship being faced by Nigerians.
Mr. President should act quickly and do the needful in the areas that will positively impact Nigeria and Nigerians.
Although the signs are good, the speed of delivery is slow, Nigerians are losing patience.
The administration should remember that Nigerians massively voted for the APC, based on the promise that it would bring a change of fortune for them.
Nigerians have patiently waited to experience the positive change they expect from the APC-led Federal Government,’’ Odusile said.
He said that one of the ways the president could achieve result was to give his cabinet members the “latitude to perform their assigned responsibilities.’’
According to the NUJ president, whoever is found wanting, whether in integrity or capacity to work should be shown the way out and prosecuted.
This way, the administration will enjoy greater goodwill from Nigerians and the international community and the much needed Foreign Direct Investments will flow into the country,’’ he said.
Odusile, however, commended the president for his dogged fight against corruption which had not spared the hitherto “untouchables’’ in the society.
For this cause, many high ranking individuals, who hitherto could be considered untouchables, are having their days in court.
Whooping sums of money in various currencies have been recovered from the privileged few, who in time past helped themselves to our common heritance.
The money is much, no doubt, but we don’t know how much yet,’’ Odusile said.
He advised the president to disclose the amount of money so far recovered, and thereafter use it to fund social infrastructural development for the benefit of Nigerians.
