On 2nd July, 2024 the Lagos State member of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Oluyemisi Ayinde in an open letter to the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Chief Bola Ahmed Tinubu while reacting to the current economic hardship facing the country, revealed that the destruction of infrastructure, loss of lives, and disruption of economic activities would set the country back by years, if not decades, undermining the progress they have strived to achieve.
According to Vanguard, the Lagos State member of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Oluyemisi Ayinde said "Your Excellency, the gravity of the situation cannot be overstated, and the potential for widespread civil unrest looms large, as the consequences of such upheaval would be overwhelmingly devastating for our nation. The destruction of infrastructure, the loss of lives, and the disruption of economic activities would set Nigeria back by years, if not decades, undermining the progress we have strived to achieve. Your Excellency, the time to act is now, as the cost of inaction is far too great and the window to prevent nationwide unrest is rapidly closing. I hereby urge you, sir, to marshal all resources at your disposal and to leverage your esteemed leadership to guide our nation through this perilous juncture."
Oluyemisi Ayinde urged the President of Nigeria, Chief Bola Ahmed Tinubu to establish a task force directly under the Presidency to supervise the immediate sale and distribution of foodstuffs to the good citizens of the country. She also urged President Tinubu to ensure transparency in his administration's spending and accountability in the execution of economic policies.
