We’re transforming Nigeria with National Assembly support– Tinubu


President Bola Tinubu has said his administration’s efforts to transform Nigeria’s economy are yielding results with the support of the National Assembly. 

Tinubu stated this at the  61st birthday of the Senate President yesterday in Abuja.

Extolling the leadership credentials of the Senate President, Tinubu stated that the Chairman of the National Assembly has always shown commitment to national development, starting as a commissioner in Akwa Ibom State, where he understudied Lagos; drew up a blueprint and implemented it as a two-term Executive Governor.

President Tinubu recalled how some of the economic and social programmes initiated by Senator Akpabio, when he was governor, developed the state, noting that the drainage system Senator Akpabio constructed had saved many lives and livelihoods.

Speaking, the Senate President commended Tinubu for his visionary leadership, most recently demonstrated in the quality of decisions taken so far to ensure improved security and a revamped economy. 

Akpabio assured Tinubu that the National Assembly would work with him to transform the country, adding that, “we did not come for a boxing bout. We came to transform Nigeria.”

In the same vein, the Speaker of the House of Representatives thanked the Nigeria leader for articulating his economic vision clearly for the National Assembly, departing from what he described as “impulsive programmes.”
