Buhari’s focus is on the common man – Osinbajo
Vice President Yemi Osinbajo maintains that the Buhari administration is about the common man.
Osinbajo said in a statement made available to Neusroom that President Buhari is very concerned about lifting the masses out of poverty.
He said that was what prompted the Trader Moni and Market Moni initiatives, through which the government gives traders a N10,000 collateral-free loans.
“Mr President’s sole concern is that the resources of our country must be used for the man and woman who need it the most, the people in our society who are working hard, the farmers, the traders, and all of the young people who need jobs, that is the focus of Mr. President’s entire economic policy,” he said.
“It is on giving the common man hope so that they can live decent lives, they can provide shelter for themselves, feed and live well.”
Osinbajo was in Jigawa on Tuesday where he says no lesser than 35,000 have benefited from the loan scheme.
Some Nigerians, particularly in the position, say the FG is stylishly using the scheme to buy votes ahead of next year’s election.
