He said that the people-oriented policies of his administration have started yielding positive results in improved human development indexes and economic indicators.
Nigeria’s President Bola Tinubu has on Monday urged political leaders in the country to work for posterity so that history will remember them for good.
The President, who hosted governors, members of the Federal Executive Council (FEC), Service Chiefs, and some selected Heads of Ministries, Departments, and Agencies (MDAs) to break the Ramadan fast at the State House, urged leaders to be selfless and work for the people’s benefit.
While calling on political leaders in the country to channel more resources and policies toward catering to the needs of the poor and vulnerable, noted that political leaders’ efforts are crucial in meeting citizens’ expectations.
He said that the people-oriented policies of his administration have started yielding positive results in improved human development indexes and economic indicators.
The President attributed the success of economic reforms to the collective effort of members of the Federal Executive Council (FEC) and the collaboration of leaders at the subnational levels.
He maintained that leaders must see the entire country as one big family in a house where people live in different rooms.
In a short remark, the Chairman of the Nigeria Governors Forum and Governor of Kwara State, Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq, thanked the President for the decisive reform of the Nigerian economy.
Also speaking, Benue State Governor, Hyacinth Alia, who led the Christian prayers, said, It is no coincidence that Muslims and Christians are fasting at the same time.
The Minister of Justice and Attorney General of the Federation, Lateef Fagbemi, SAN, noted that the prices of goods and foodstuffs were steadily dropping.
Fagbemi said the reforms had also improved livelihoods while commending the President for his courage.
