The Forum of Former Deputy Governors of Nigeria has raised alarm over the growing hardship in the country, particularly the rising cost of food and increasing insecurity.
The group also highlighted other pressing issues such as the unstable exchange rate and widespread corruption, which are adding to the nation’s challenges.
Dr. Chris Akomas, a former Deputy Governor of Abia State, voiced these concerns in a statement shared with journalists in Umuahia. He emphasized the need for strategic solutions to improve governance and address the country’s economic difficulties.
The forum, led by Akomas, is advocating for innovative approaches to ensure food security and promote sustainable economic growth. To tackle these pressing issues, the group is planning to convene a conference in Abuja aimed at finding ways to resolve Nigeria’s economic challenges.
