Tinubu Scores Self High, Says Nigeria Has Stabilised, Lists Gains As Administration Marks Third Anniversary
Three years after taking office amid economic turmoil, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu says Nigeria has turned a corner, declaring that tough reforms implemented by his administration have begun yielding visible results across key sectors of the economy.
In a nationwide address marking the third anniversary of his administration on Friday, Tinubu acknowledged the hardship Nigerians have endured following the removal of fuel subsidies and foreign exchange reforms but insisted the sacrifices were necessary to avert a deeper economic crisis.
The President said Nigeria is now witnessing improved public finances, rising investor confidence, record growth in the stock market, and renewed investments in critical sectors including oil and gas, power, telecommunications and infrastructure.
Highlighting achievements under the Renewed Hope Agenda, Tinubu pointed to ongoing construction of over 2,700 kilometres of roads, expansion of rail projects, improved local refining capacity, student loan disbursements exceeding ₦282 billion, housing developments across the country, and agricultural interventions aimed at boosting food production.
On security, the President said intensified operations by security agencies were making many communities and highways safer, while reaffirming his administration’s commitment to defeating terrorism, banditry, kidnapping and oil theft.
While admitting that challenges remain, Tinubu maintained that the foundation for national recovery has been laid and urged Nigerians to remain united and hopeful.
“Your sacrifices have not been in vain,” he said. “Nigeria has stabilised and is moving forward again.”
