“Nigerians are encouraged to rediscover themselves and say clear NO to these measures.
“While the Buhari government should have taken the respite offered by the patience of the people as golden opportunity to fulfill its election promises of a better life for Nigerians, it should not take it as liberty to continue to inflict further hardship on the people”, she stated.
