President Bola Tinubu has said his administration is a continuation of that of his predecessor, late Muhammadu Buhari.

Describing the late ex-President as a partner, Tinubu he took over from himself.

Tinubu made the remarks while addressing the 36 state coordinators of the Renewed Hope Ambassadors (RHA) during a meeting at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.

Speaking, Tinubu described Buhari as a partner in leadership, stressing that the transition between both administrations should not be seen as a break but a continuation.

He said, “The truth is I took over from myself. The late Buhari is me; he was a partner. If I took over from him, is that not from myself?”

He acknowledged the challenges facing the country, urging Nigerians and members of the RHA to remain patient and committed to ongoing reforms.

“If something is wrong, fine live with it, correct it, move on. It’s not going to be easy,” Tinubu stated.

The President further assured supporters that the sacrifices being made would yield positive outcomes, expressing confidence in his leadership and vision for the country.

“So many of you that are travelling with me, I can stand before you, you will not regret it,” he added.

The meeting had in attendance top government officials, including Vice President Kashim Shettima, All Progressives Congress, APC, governors, and party leaders.

Tinubu Inherited Dead Economy – Presidency Replies New York Times


The Presidency has reacted to a report published in the New York Times criticising the Nigerian economy as facing the worst trajectory in a generation.

Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, responded on Sunday to the report by Ruth Maclean and Ismail Auwal.

According to the Presidency, the feature story, titled ‘Nigeria Confronts Its Worst Economic Crisis in a Generation’ and published on June 11, reflected the typical predetermined, reductionist, derogatory, and denigrating way foreign media establishments have reported on African countries for decades.

Onanuga stated that due to the ‘misleading’ slant of the report, the government needed to clear up some misconceptions conveyed by the reporters regarding the economic policies of President Bola Tinubu’s administration, which took office at the end of May 2023.


He noted that the report painted a dire picture of some Nigerians’ experiences amid the inflationary spiral of the last year and unfairly blamed it all on the new administration’s policies.

He argued that the report, based on several interviews, is at best jaundiced, portraying all gloom and doom without mentioning the positive aspects of the economy or the amelioration policies being implemented by the central and state governments.

Onanuga emphasized that Tinubu did not create the economic problems Nigeria faces today but inherited them.

“As a respected economist in our country once put it, Tinubu inherited a dead economy.

“The economy was bleeding and needed quick surgery to avoid being plunged into the abyss, as happened in Zimbabwe and Venezuela,” he noted.

He explained that this context led to the policy direction taken by the government in May/June 2023, including the abrogation of the fuel subsidy regime and the unification of the multiple exchange rates.

Onanuga highlighted that Nigeria had maintained a fuel subsidy regime for decades, which consumed $84.39 billion between 2005 and 2022 from the public treasury, in a country with significant infrastructural deficits and a high need for better social services.

He also alleged that the state oil firm, NNPCL, had accumulated trillions of Naira in debts due to unsustainable subsidy payments.

“The budget itself had a striking feature: it planned to spend 97 per cent of revenue servicing debt, with little left for recurrent or capital expenditure. The previous government had resorted to massive borrowing to cover such costs.”

Onanuga further explained that like oil, the exchange rate was also subsidized by the government, with an estimated $1.5 billion spent monthly by the CBN to defend the currency against the unquenchable demand for the dollar.

“This low rate led to arbitrage and failures to fulfil remittance obligations to airlines and other foreign businesses, drying up foreign direct investment and investments in the oil sector.

“To address these issues, Tinubu rolled back the subsidy regime and floated the naira on his first day”, Onanuga said.

Despite initial challenges, Onanuga noted that some stability is being restored, with the exchange rate now below N1500 to the dollar and prospects for further appreciation.

He cited a trade surplus of N6.52 trillion in Q1, as opposed to a deficit of N1.4 trillion in Q4 of 2023, and renewed interest from portfolio investors as indicators of improving economic confidence. Loans from the World Bank, AfDB, and Afreximbank are also contributing to Nigeria’s renewed bankability.

Onanuga highlighted efforts to control inflation, especially food inflation, through increased agricultural production and state-led initiatives to sell food at lower prices.

“The Tinubu administration has invested heavily in dry-season farming and provided incentives to farmers.”

He concluded by comparing Nigeria’s economic challenges with those faced by the USA and Europe, emphasizing that the Tinubu administration is working hard to overcome these difficulties.

“Our country faced economic difficulties in the past, an experience captured in folk songs. Just like we overcame then, we shall overcome our present difficulties very soon.”

The most inconsequential politician in Nigeria. E think sey people don't forget his part in bringing the APC plague to Nigeria?

Renewed Shege, coming to a city near you. Grab yuwa copy nau!

Wahala dey oh. Wahala dey oh

BrickandLace:
Seems like it.

That was outrageous.

Yep, just looked it up again. She's the one. Funny how times flies, she made that ridiculous claim back in 2020, 6 yrs ago

is she the one that fed 600 million children when schools were closed during Covid-19?

One chance things. Choose wisely

Renewed hope, coming to a city near you.

The problem with this situation is that, if eventually, some how , a miracle happens and insecurity ends in northern Nigeria. There would forever be bad blood between the people of the middle belt and the Fulani and that would be a flash point for the next fifty years, maybe even more. The core northern leadership didn't think this move through and really messed up by allowing the Fulani run freely.


This is not the first time we have had inter-tribal wars (Fulani vs Oyo empire among others), however over 300 years of colonial rule by the British helped make those hostilities a distant memory by enforcing rules, however there are no foreign mediators at this point so the hostilities that the Fulani have created all over the middle belt would now leave a very lasting memory and it would never be the same again

This one na top info, if you know, you know

It would interest you to know that last week, for some strange reason, The Nigerian army "relocated" over 500 boko haram members to a "top security post" in Abuja. Many people for Abuja record the video with their phones, Army and DSS used a convoy of buses to transport boko haram, all of them were blindfolded. Abeg no ask me if this was transporting to a top security post or strategic and tactical relocation. Because if you ask me, na who I go ask?

This happened two weeks after America asked its citizens to leave.

I go repeat my post from last week

Mrchippychappy:

Great. I would like to see an African randomly travel to Europe to get adopted by the European royal family or an African travel to Saudi Arabia or the UAE to get adopted by the Saudi king or the emirati royal family. That would make for a very good reality tv content.

esnbrutality:
After APC published list of supposed terrorist and excluding ...

SW.....were even the UK and USA with the European commission categorically stated as unsafe.

They had to justify the list. ..this is an NSA hit and it's terrible. You will understand soonest. The jihadists are incohorts with SW islamist.

Punch Newspapers is a propaganda arm of the APC Government.

Chopnaira /Slytiget , na yout Government do am..

Shame on you

You don talk am finish. I appreciate your intellect on the deception being used by government parastatals. Wasting lives just to push a narrative that not just a few places but the entire country is unsafe. The global independent security agencies know better and in due time these evil perpetrators would be brought to book. 2026 go be like action film, just dey watch

isn't it obvious that this is a sponsored terror attack to give the impression that the entire country, not just the places ravaged by radical islamist terrorists, is insecure? Sooner or later those behind this evil would be brought to book and hung on live TV.
