BREAKING: Tinubu has done his best for Nigeria — Akpabio

The Senate President, Godswill Akpabio, has said that President Bola Tinubu has done his best for Nigeria.

Akpabio made this known on Wednesday during his welcome address at the 2025 budget presentation.

He said, “The President has done his best for Nigeria. Your Excellency, your leadership shines like a beacon of hope, illuminating our path forward in these challenging times.

“As you profoundly stated, ‘A nation is built not merely by the bricks and mortar of its structures but by the resilience and determination of its people.’

“This truth resonates deeply, reminding us that the spirit of our citizens defines our nation, not just the edifices we construct.”

He added, “Under your administration, we have witnessed remarkable strides in economic reforms aimed at enhancing our nation’s stability and growth.

“The courageous decision to remove fuel subsidies, though challenging, showcases your unwavering commitment to redirecting resources to critical sectors such as education and healthcare.

“Your collaboration with the Central Bank has cultivated an environment ripe for investment, and your focus on infrastructure development reflects a visionary commitment to improving the connectivity that fuels our economy. No community in Nigeria is currently under the siege of Boko
Haram,” Akpabio said boastfully.

The PUNCH reports that the President arrived at the House of Representatives Chamber at exactly 12:10 pm, where the event was being held.

In addition to lawmakers, those present at the chamber included Vice President Senator Kashim Shettima, the Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister of the Economy, Wale Edun, the Minister of Budget and Economic Planning, Abubakar Bagudu, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, the former Speaker of the House of Representatives and Chief of Staff to the President, Femi Gbajabiamila, and the National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, Abdullahi Ganduje.
