A Chieftain of All Progressive Congress and a contender in the 2023 Governorship race in Abia State, Mazi Chibuike Jonas, has expressed joy at the news of the successful lifting of the ban on Nigerians’ travel to the United Arab Emirates (UAE), describing it as a milestone that will help boost the Small and Medium Scale Enterprises (SME’s), which has been suffering as a result of this ban in the past.

According to his explanation, it takes time to put a nation in the right direction for the needed development to be seen by all, he appealed to Nigerians to be patient with this administration as President Tinubu and his team of competent hands will keep working around the clock to put Nigeria back on the path of the economy boost, as every step so far taken by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is in the right direction, which has continued to raise hope for the masses.

In his words: “Truth be told, Nigeria has faced some economic downturn that is biting hard due to tough policies that had to be taken to reposition the country to the path of total recovery. Yet Nigerians have to accept these realities in good faith, as it is for the best and will last for a while.”

“After the opening of some borders and now the lifting of the ban on Nigerians travel to UAE, it is clear that this administration has the interest of the people at heart and is focused on revamping the economy from the roots. This is a step in the right direction.”

“We are optimistic that in no distant time, more good news will emerge from his last visit to India from where he flew to UAE to strengthen our bilateral relationship. Our country is back on track and President Tinubu has his two hands on the plough. He is not looking back”, he assured.
