The FCT chapter of the Nigeria Medical Association, NMA, has urged President Bola Tinubu to address issues that led to the nationwide protest.

The chairman of the association, Dr Charles Ugwuanyi, made the call on Monday.

He said the issue that led to the protest is hunger, occasioned by the cost of food that is biting Nigerians hard.

He also urged Tinubu to review the security situation in the country, which he said was seriously affected by so many things.

“We are calling on the president to make the economy friendly so the Nigerian will be able to put food on their table,” he said.

According to him, President Tinubu’s desire to rescue the country from so many issues that have bedeviled it had thrown severe hardship on Nigerians.

He added that despite his efforts, the hunger and unbearable conditions in many parts of the country persisted, fueling public discontent.

“The dire economic situation has led many to view protests as a necessary outlet for their frustrations, such action also threatens the national security of the country,” he said.

Ugwuanyi said Nigerians were hungry and the government should wake-up to their responsibility and rescue the country.

“The government must address the main issue of hunger and the cost of food.

“The president should address all these challenges and another economy-related issue like the cost of fuel that is injecting pains on the people,” Ugwuanyi said.
