Shettima, made this known in Abuja at a National conference on Strengthening Democracy in Nigeria.

According to him, solving economic challenges and strengthening weak institutions across Africa would guarantee lasting democracy.

He assured Nigerian citizens that the federal government is aware of the many concerns about its direction and goals, especially given the difficulties which some of its policies inevitably generate.

“We are involved in correcting many defects in our economy and approaches to securing the citizen.

“We have been honest to admit that this transition from a broken past and a promising future will not be without a price, and we will remain focused on easing the pain and ensuring that we do not take our eyes off the goals,” he said.
