We have many people in this country who are living below a dollar a day. We have many youth who have gone to school, but are unemployed. We have many people who were employed by some industries and Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs), but they were sacked. This is a challenge to the current leadership, including the Senate and the National Assembly, to consider cushioning the citizenry of this country from these hard economic times."}
