Vice President Kashim Shettima has reiterated President Bola Tinubu’s commitment to massively boost Nigeria’s infrastructural needs, saying the President has his eyes on the nation’s basic needs and requirements.

Shettima spoke on Tuesday at his residence in Maiduguri, where he hosted members of the Borno Elders Forum, the All Progressives Congress, and other stakeholders for Ramadan Iftar.

The Vice President called for all Nigerians to continue supporting Tinubu’s administration, just as he said the government’s policies would be immensely beneficial to all and sundry in no distant time.

He specifically mentioned that President Tinubu’s directive to immediately address the power supply challenge in Maiduguri and some parts of Borno had caught his attention.

He said: “We owe it to this president to be loyal and law-abiding citizens. He has a total grasp of the situation, the challenges, and, indeed, the prospects we have as a nation.

“A careful look at our nation’s economy will show a gradual bouncing back on most frontiers.

“This is a testament that, indeed, our investment of our votes and trust in this leader will pay off at the end of the road.

“So, let us continue to pray for him and commit ourselves to the peace, unity, and development of the Nigerian nation, and we shall definitely be the winners for it.”
