Nigerians Voted For Change, Let Them Suffer For It – Fredrick Faseun

Fredrick Faseun, the Oodua Peoples Congress, OPC founder has challenged Nigerians to bear the consequences of their decision to vote for the “change” mantra and stop complaining about the current economic hardship.

The OPC founder in an interview with The Sun Newspaper urged Nigerians to accept their fate and the resultant effect of their decision with equanimity and endure the Waterloo they placed themselves in.

Further in the interview, Fasheun said: “Nigerians voted for Buhari. They voted for change. The hardship and suffering they are going through now is part of that
change. They should not be complaining.

“Instead of complaining, they should be praying for Buhari. Nigerians were cheering him initially but now they are getting despondent. Buhari should not wait until Nigerians start jeering at him as a result of failed promises.”

Reiterating his stand that President Muhammadu Buhari has fallen short of all his promises to his countrymen, Fasheun said: “Hardship and suffering have increased. Many Nigerians today are hungry and angry. Even now, the rich also cry. The bad economy has worsened the situation with many Ni­gerians finding it increasingly difficult to survive. The situation can’t continue like this, government must find a remedy.

“Power supply has not been encouraging. Many industries are closing down while millions of jobs are being lost to erratic power supply.

“Many Nigerians that are self-employed including artisans like welders, hair dressers and others who depend on efficient power supply to sustain their small scale ventures have been rendered jobless as a result of poor power supply. This has been a big minus on the
part of the administration. Increasing unemployment and job losses occasioned by poor power supply should be a source of concern to the president and his team.”
