All throughout the country’s six geopolitical zones, youth groups have applauded President Bola Tinubu for supporting Innoson Motors in the use of compressed natural gas (CNG) for public transportation, which helps mitigate the impact of the removal of subsidies.
Under the auspices of the Coalition of Nigerian Youth Leaders (CONYL), the groups expressed their happiness at President Tinubu’s support of the regional automaker yesterday and called him a brilliant leader. “This move is a confirmation that President Tinubu feels and listens to Nigerians and is ready to go all out to meet the demands and aspirations of the people,” the group said in a statement released by Goodluck Ibem, their president general.
“President Tinubu has started implementing the demands of Nigerian workers and protesters via the purchase of the CNG vehicles to subsidise transport fares.
“The patronage will improve our economy and provide more resources for Innoson Motors to employ more youths and workers, which will reduce youth restiveness and improve the growth of our Gross Domestic Product (GDP).
“The patronage will encourage more investors to invest into our economy and drastically reduce the demand for imported goods among Nigerians. The President has set a good example for Nigerians to follow.
“Without any equivocation, the President has proven to be a bridge builder, a man of uncommon generosity and a legend of our time.
“The President has restored the confidence of Nigerian youths to believe in their country and her abilities.
“We commend the Chairman/CEO of Innoson Motors, who conceived and brought to fruition a vehicle plant in the country that can compete favourablly with any vehicle in the world.
“His idea and vision has placed our nation on the world map as people of great talent and determination.
“We call on all Nigerian youths to believe in President Tinubu, who is fully determined and prepared to take the nation to greater heights.
“President Tinubu will soon take the country to her desired destination. We should be patient with him.”
