FG reforms boost economy, targets saboteurs
In a significant stride towards economic transformation, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s reforms yield positive results, prompting a crackdown on saboteurs.
Upon his inauguration on May 29, 2023, President Tinubu vowed to end the petrol subsidy, redirecting savings to crucial public sectors. Petrol importation has since decreased by fifty percent, and crude oil production is on the rise.
According to statement by Mohammed Idris, Minister of Information and National Orientation, said that, states’ monthly receipts surged post-subsidy removal, providing extra funds for developmental projects.
Additionally, the Central Bank of Nigeria’s move towards a unified exchange rate and market-driven forex rates has garnered positive outcomes.

Nigerians are urged to remain patient as the government works towards enduring prosperity, assuring that the current challenges are temporary.
