The Minister of Marine and Blue Economy, Adegboyega Oyetola, has listed roles expected to be played by various stakeholders in the affairs of the country for the current reforms championed by the administration of President Bola Tinubu to achieve desired results.
Oyetola gave the list on Monday, in Ile-Ife, Osun State, at the first International Conference on Public Policy, Governance and Development Agenda organised by the Department of Public Administration, Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife.
He specifically said that for the reforms to work as envisaged by the policymakers, the government must demonstrate courage, while the public would have to exercise patience as the members of academia provide support for the process with intellectual honesty during transitional hardships for lasting gains to be recorded.
Represented by the Managing Director, National Inland Waterways Authority, Mr Bola Oyebamiji, accompanied by many members of his AMBO political movement, a group in the fold of the All Progressives Congress in Osun State, Oyetola, who served as the chairman of the occasion, commended President Bola Tinubu, for his willingness to engage and re-evaluate public policies for greater results.
“At this point, please permit me to mention that the President and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, and the Visitor to this great University, His Excellency, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, has demonstrated his willingness to engage and re-evaluate public policies for greater results.
“His trajectory in the last two years has revealed him as an unapologetic reformist who deserves our collective support as a nation. I urge us all to continue to support Mr. President and Commander-in-Chief.
“As we gather to re-evaluate policies, we must confront the unconfrontable reality: that reform requires not just government courage, but citizen patience, and intellectual honesty to endure transitional hardships for lasting gains,” Oyetola said.
He further posited that Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda offers hope of a stronger economy that would enable prosperity for all.
He subsequently urged Nigerians to collectively support the lofty initiatives of the federal government, packaged in policies and programmes that would directly benefit the masses and strengthen the economy for the betterment of all and sundry.
In his remarks, the Chairman, OAU Governing Council, Siyan Oyeweso, emphasised the need for contributions of all Nigerians towards the economic stability of the nation, saying everyone must rise up and support the government’s efforts aimed at rebuilding the nation.
