President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has promised that Nigerians would soon enjoy the benefits of the “tough but yet necessary decisions” of his administration.

The president made the promise on Tuesday at the State House during a meeting with the South-South Monarchs Forum, led by His Royal Majesty, Major-General Felix Mujakperuo (Rtd), Chairman of the Delta State Council of Traditional Rulers, and Vice-Chairman of the South-South Monarchs Forum.

He commended the monarchs for their understanding approach to his administration’s ongoing economic reforms, particularly the removal of the fuel subsidy.

President Tinubu assured the traditional rulers in the South-South geopolitical zone that his administration was committed to addressing their concerns over development and environmental degradation.
