“The economy is showing improvement. Despite challenges such as inflation, we are committed to bringing it under control. We have also made significant progress in stabilising the exchange rate and managing our borrowing. Nigeria is reclaiming its sovereignty and earning respect internationally,” Tinubu remarked.
Acknowledging the role of the campaign team in his election, Tinubu expressed gratitude, stating, “Your efforts and dedication have brought us this far. The journey ahead may be challenging, but with persistence, we will achieve our goals. Nigeria will prosper, and we will all benefit from its prosperity.”
