Executive Secretary/Chief Executive Officer of Nigerian Shippers Council, Pius Akutah, in this interview, speaks about steps being taken by President Bola Tinubu to turn the nation round for the better as well as politics around the recent security skirmishes that rocked Benue State. George Okoh brings excerpts:
You are on the federal government’s delegation to commiserate with people of Benue State over the recent killings in some parts of the state. Do you have any word of hope for the Benue people?
For the Benue people, I urge them to believe in Mr. President. He is not the type that we just pay lip service to issues like this. He’s very firm, very honest and sincere with Nigerian people. He’s an accomplished man by all standards. All that he needs to do now and all that he is doing is to leave a legacy for this country. We have seen how he is building the economy, how he is deepening our democracy, how he is stretching hands of fellowship to many dissidents across the country and ensuring that this country is blooming in a new economic order that will affect everyone. Over the years, people have talked about diversifying the economy of this Nigeria over and over and over and over.
