Governor Dapo Abiodun of Ogun State believes President Bola Tinubu’s policies have helped Nigeria, despite inheriting a “administration that was almost comatose.”
Local Minister urges doctors to prioritize exercise for better service delivery.
President Tinubu implemented some economic reforms after taking over from former President
Muhammadu Buhari in May 2023 to address the country’s economic challenges.
These policies, which include floating the naira and eliminating fuel subsidies, have put Nigerians in a difficult position as fuel and food prices rise.
Governor Abiodun, speaking on Channels TV on Sunday, November 27, 2023, was upbeat, saying that with Tinubu’s economic policies, Nigeria would be better off in the long run.
“President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s administration,” he said.
has been extremely daring and audacious. They’ve grabbed the bull by the horns. They have accomplished something that no other government in Nigerian history has done.”
“They had to deregulate to save Nigerians, and they deregulated at a time when petroleum pricing was at an all-time high.” But they knew full well that if they didn’t do it then, the country would be brought to its knees. As they say, there can be no gain without suffering. He took over an administration that was nearly unconscious.”
Despite the rising cost of living in the country as a result of the removal of fuel subsidies and the floating of the naira, the governor is confident that President Tinubu will turn the country around.
“You know our President, he is an accountant in addition to being a former governor and senator,”
“So, he is very accurate, and all hands are on deck to turn this economy around.” “We’re optimistic, and we can see light at the end of the tunnel,” Abiodun said.
Abiodun’s interview with Channels Television came two days after the Lagos Appeal Court upheld his re-election as the duly elected Governor of Ogun State.
