The presidency has assured Nigerians that President Bola Tinubu listens to them and feels their pulse.

The special adviser to the president on information and strategy, Bayo Onanuga, said Tinubu always acknowledged the problems Nigerians are going through.

The former Managing Director of the News Agency of Nigeria added that the recent 50 per cent transport fare rebate during the Yuletide
season is proof that the president is aware of the hardships citizens face.

He wrote on X: “President Tinubu listens to Nigerians and feels the pulse of the people all the time. He reads newspapers daily, reads the columnists, and is able to distil public opinion.

“In many of his engagements, he has always acknowledged the temporary problems people are going through and is always receptive to ideas about ameliorating the situation and giving succour to the people.

“That was the reason behind his decision that the Federal Government bear 50 per cent of the transport costs for those going home, by road, for the Yuletide.

“Besides, President Tinubu is naturally a man of compassion. He will do anything to ensure that our people do not suffer.”
