Though 2024 posed numerous challenges to our citizens and households, I am confident that the New Year will bring brighter days.


Fellow Nigerians

As we enter 2025, I wish everyone a happy and prosperous New Year. May you be rich in joy, success, and good health.

As the new year dawns, it brings many hopes, aspirations, and prospects for better days. By the grace of God, 2025 will be a year of great promise in which we will fulfill our collective desires.

Though 2024 posed numerous challenges to our citizens and households, I am confident that the New Year will bring brighter days.
Economic indicators point to a positive and encouraging outlook for our nation.

Fuel prices have gradually decreased, and we recorded foreign trade surpluses in three consecutive quarters. Foreign reserves have risen, and the Naira has strengthened against the US dollar, bringing greater stability.

The stock market’s record growth has generated trillions of naira in wealth, and the surge in foreign investment reflects renewed confidence in our economy. Nevertheless, the cost of food and essential drugs remained a significant concern for many Nigerian households in 2024.

The stock market’s record growth has generated trillions of naira in wealth, and the surge in foreign investment reflects renewed confidence in our economy. Nevertheless, the cost of food and essential drugs remained a significant concern for many Nigerian households in 2024.
In 2025, our government is committed to intensifying efforts to lower these costs by boosting food production and promoting local manufacturing of essential drugs and other medical supplies.

We are resolute in our ambition to reduce inflation from its current high of 34.6% to 15%. With diligent work and God’s help, we will achieve this goal and provide relief to all our people.

In this new year, my administration will further consolidate and increase access to credit for individuals and critical sectors of the economy to boost national economic output.

To achieve this, the federal government will establish the National Credit Guarantee Company to expand risk-sharing instruments for financial institutions and enterprises.

The Company—expected to start operations before the end of the second quarter—is a partnership of government institutions, such as the Bank of Industry, Nigerian Consumer Credit Corporation, the Nigerian Sovereign Investment Agency, and Ministry of Finance Incorporated, the private sector, and multilateral institutions.
This initiative will strengthen the confidence of the financial system, expand credit access, and support under-served groups such as women and youth. It will drive growth, re-industrialisation, and better living standards for our people.
On a personal note, thank you for placing your confidence in me as your president. Your trust humbles me, and I promise to continue serving you diligently and wholeheartedly.
We will continue to embark on necessary reforms to foster sustainable growth and prosperity for our nation.
I seek your cooperation and collaboration at all times as we pursue our goal of a one trillion-dollar economy. Let us stay focused and united.

We are on the right path to building a great Nigeria that will work for everyone. Let us not get distracted by a tiny segment of our population that still sees things through the prisms of politics, ethnicity, region, and religion.

CITIZENSHIP

To achieve our national goals and objectives, we must become better citizens and uncompromising in our devotion and allegiance to Nigeria.
Citizens’ moral rectitude and faith in our country are fundamental to the success of the Renewed Hope Agenda. In 2025, we will commit to promoting adherence to ethical principles, shared values, and beliefs under the National Identity Project.
I will unveil the National Values Charter, already approved by the Federal Executive Council, in the first quarter of 2025. I will launch an ambitious national orientation campaign that fosters patriotism and love for our country and inspires citizens to rally together. The Charter will promote mutual commitments between the government and citizens and foster trust and cooperation among our diverse population and between the government and the citizens.
As far-reaching and foundational as our reforms are, they can produce the desired outcomes only through shared common values and identities and unconditional love for our country.
The Youth Confab will begin in the first quarter of 2025, a testament to our commitment to youth inclusiveness and investment as nation-builders. The Ministry of Youth will soon announce the modalities for selecting the conference’s representatives from our diverse, youthful population.
Dear Compatriots, I urge you to continue believing in yourselves and keeping faith in our blessed country.
Let me use this New Year’s message to urge our governors and local council chairpersons to work closely with the central government to seize emerging opportunities in agriculture, livestock, and tax reforms and move our nation forward. I commend governors who have embraced our Compressed Natural Gas initiative by launching CNG-propelled public transport. I also congratulate those who have adopted electric vehicles as part of our national energy mix and transition. The Federal Government will always offer necessary assistance to the states.

To all citizens, your sacrifices have not been in vain over the past 19 months. I assure you they will not be in vain even in the months ahead. Together, let us stay the course of nation-building.
The New Year will bring us closer to the bright future we all desire and the Nigeria of our dreams.
God bless you all, and may God bless our beloved country, Nigeria.


Happy New Year and a prosperous 2025 to you all!

Bola Tinubu,

President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria

Grand delusionist

Lol. Who sent it up there in the first place?

Tinubu is just 19 Months in Office and we are all feeling he's been there forever.
That's a sign of an effective Leader. This period, Buhari government has not even settled down

Great and inspiring message

2025 all be a great year for Nigeria

If you don’t believe it and you live in Nigeria, then you will be the one to be miserable

Jagaban will fix Nigeria

Fuel price drastically reduced?

Fuel you met at below ₦200/litre and increased to almost ₦1500/litre, then ₦1100/litre is reduced?

If that is what you call a reduction, your accountancy papers would do better on the table of a suya seller.

Onye ori mandate. I will, I will, I will, that is words of drug baron that force himself on Nigerians. Thunder fire you if you comment against.

CodeTemplarr:

Tomorrow if a dollar exchanges for say N1,000, his supporters will count is as an achievement. Meanwhile he met the dollar at N700.

Anything higher than N216/$1 is scam because he campaigned against N216/$1

Fuel is 980 naira in some filling station while the greedy owners of other filling stations sells for 1,020 naira. Blame greedy owners.

Last paragraph should appear like this:

To all citizens, your sufferings have not been in vain over the past 19 months. I assure you they wilmost likely be in vain even in the months ahead because I've been clueless all along. Together, let my foot soldiers and nairaland warriors stay the course of nation-destruction.
The New Year will bring us closer to the bright future we all desire and the Nigeria of our dreams.
God bless you all, and may God bless our beloved country, Nigeria.

Greedy owners didn't hike it from ₦180 to ₦2000. Uncle Tinubu did.

Don't be decived, It's not subsidized, black market was 700 while official rate was 400. The subsidize rate was 400

Yes...no matter the logic you'd present.


An example was from his inaugural speech.

Argentine President, Javier Gerardo Milei is just one year in office and reduced inflation by more than you can think of something magical.

President Tinubu and his Economic team as just clueless and have practical experience in solving complex socioeconomic problems in Nigeria.

His background was part of his electioneering campaign.
Javier Gerardo Milei[b] (born 22 October 1970) is an Argentine economist and politician who has served as President of Argentina since December 2023. He has taught university courses written on various aspects of economics and politics and also hosted radio programs on the subject. Milei's views distinguish him within mainstream Argentine politics.

I like PBAT's courage, I have always loved courageous Leaders, without the reforms of Tinubu, Nigeria would have gone bankrupt.
You can't solve all problems at same time, and most time, while fixing an aspect, the other side lingered, if you critically examined it you will noticed that PBAT has done a lot in the fiscal policies, he exited ways and means completely and have made significant repayment on the outstandings, he has generated more revenue by removing the wasteful fuel subsidy and promoting unified exchange rate which has increased Naira revenue to the various tiers of government from the Federation Account, this means the Budget deficit has been narrowed and more resources have been released for developmental purposes.
I listened and agree with him in his Presidential Chat that to fix inflation, you will need to produce more. He's just less than 2years, I think he's not done badly.
Kudos to the Argentina President, he's also a radical, a pro-Donald Trump who has embarked on reforms to fix his country.

Answer this question

Is the 980 naira you're stressing here a justifiable achievement in reduction to reduce the economic hardship of the masses?
