The federal government yesterday reaffirmed its respect for the Catholic Church, describing it as one of Nigeria’s most important development partners, stressing that President Bola Tinubu remains committed to strengthening engagement with faith-based organisations in addressing the country’s pressing challenges.
Besides, the Tinubu administration assured that the current economic hardship confronting Nigerians is only a passing phase that will ultimately give way to the benefits of ongoing reforms.
