‘It Has Not Been Easy But There’s No Going Back On Our Reforms’ – Tinubu Tells Nigerians
Meanwhile, President Bola Tinubu says he has no plans to reverse the economic reforms embarked upon by his administration.
President Tinubu noted that the journey has not been easy, but it is a necessary sacrifice Nigerians have to pay for the greater good of the nation.
He acknowledged the difficulties Nigerians have had to endure as a result of the economic reforms and urged the citizens to believe in the process, promising that there would be light at the end of the tunnel.
Naija News reports the President made the declaration on Wednesday while delivering his speech during the presentation of the ₦47.9 trillion 2025 budget proposal to a joint sitting of the National Assembly in Abuja.
“The journey of economic renewal and institutional development, which we began 18 months ago as a nation, is very much underway. It is not a journey we chose but one we had to embark on for Nigeria to have a real chance at greatness. I thank every Nigerian for embarking on this journey of REFORMS and TRANSFORMATION with us.
“The road of reforms is now clearly upon us, and as the President of this blessed nation, I know this less-travelled road has not been easy. That there have been difficulties and sacrifices. They will not be in vain. And we must keep faith with the process to arrive at our collectively desired destination.
“We do not intend to depart from this critical path to strengthen the Nigerian economy. Just as I believe in the resilience of our economy to withstand the current challenges, I also strongly believe in the resilience of the Nigerian people. Again, I summon the unstoppable Nigerian spirit to lead us on as we work to rebuild the fabric of our economy and existence,” the President said.
