Adding: “It’s a terrible situation that we find ourselves in today. I experienced hunger and poverty last December. This year is worse, I can feel it; I can see that it is worse. But, I encourage them to celebrate this year’s Christmas anyhow possible with hope,” believing “that the 49 Trillion Naira budget of President Bola Tinubu will impact on our economy positively by next year, 2025.”

“I wish them a wonderful Christmas, despite the hard times that we are in, and a prosperous new year in advance,” he concluded.
