<h2>President Bola Tinubu has again pleaded with Nigerians to exercise patience with his administration, saying the country is about to enter a new and glorious dawn.</h2>

<p>The President in an official video released by the State House on Wednesday, August 7, 2024, acknowledged the hardship Nigerians are going through as a result of <a data-link-role-code="open_new_tab" href="https://www.pulse.ng/news/politics/no-more-fuel-subsidy-president-tinubu/ps2t509">fuel subsidy removal.</a></p>

<p>President Tinubu also admitted that an “<em>avoidable lag”</em> between subsidy removal and his <em>“good and helpful plans”</em> compounded Nigerians’ pains.</p>

<p>He said, <em>“Fellow Nigerians, this period may be hard on us and there’s no doubt that it is tough on us but I urge you all to look beyond the present temporary pains and aim at the larger picture. All our good and helpful plans are in the works. More importantly, I know that they will work. Sadly, there was an avoidable lag between subsidy removal and these plans coming fully on line.”</em></p>
