Lagos State Governor Babatunde Fashola on Friday said the government was duty bound to ensure that the sufferings of Nigerians ended “as quickly as possible.”

Fashola spoke at the Presidential Wing of the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Ikeja, on his arrival from Abuja after a meeting with President Goodluck Jonathan on the state of the nation, the News Agency of Nigeria reports.

The governor arrived on an Air Force Presidential jet with registration no. 5N-FGW at about 12.40pm.

“One way or the other, people are suffering and we remain responsible and duty bound to ensure that the sufferings and inconveniences end as quickly as possible.

“On my own interest, and I believe that the interest of those of us who are involved here today and all Nigerians, the ordinary people are bearing the brunt of this crisis,” he said.

Fashola, who described the governors’ meeting with the president as progressive, said, “It was a useful meeting, coming from where we were before.

“The meeting is progressive and parties are ready to engage in dialogue. So, for us, it is a step forward.”

On threats by the Petroleum and Natural Gas Senior Staff Association of Nigeria to down tools to protest petrol subsidy removal, the governor said he had not obtained any concrete fact on the matter.

“Well, I do not have those facts now, but I think in a situation where we are trying to make progress, it does not help the negotiations to issue more threats,” Fashola said.
