In his speech, Tinubu remarked, “Our dear landlord and his team, I heard you saying two months free ride. I appeal to you to make it till the end of the year. Since today you’re not going to charge me, that will give the people hope and reasons to celebrate.”
This move is seen as a significant gesture to support the residents of the Federal Capital Territory amid ongoing economic challenges.
