How to display "Pending for review post count" on front end

I am writing for a custom spinet to display "Pending Post Count" on front end at the user's page, need to show the pending posts counts for that particular user who is already logged in.

$pending_posts = wp_count_posts()->pending;

using this we can get overall pending post count but i need to display the counts of the particular user who is logged in.

The result should be like

Dear user! "10" Posts are pending for review

This will return the number of posts pending:

$number_pending_post = count(get_posts( array('author' => get_current_user_id(), 'posts_per_page' => -1, 'post_type' => 'post', 'post_status' => 'pending')));

You can then echo it:

echo 'Dear user! '.$number_pending_post.' Posts are pending for review';

Watch out for get_current_user_id(), it will return 0 if the user is not logged in. You can wrap this around the condition of is_user_logged_in()
