During an Interfaith Iftar dinner held at the Presidential Villa in Abuja on Monday evening, President Bola Tinubu sent a firm message to those threatening the nation’s stability. Addressing a gathering of traditional and religious leaders, the President emphasized that his administration remains undeterred by security challenges.
Defeating Insecurity
President Tinubu assured the nation that the tide is turning against insurgents and terrorists. He noted that the recent desperate actions of these groups are a sign of their weakening positions.
“Nigeria will never let people who cause trouble damage its peace, unity, and independence. We are not discouraged. We are going to win, and we will win in a strong and fair way. Yes, we are facing challenges; the terrorists are now in a desperate situation because they are losing ground.”
Economic Outlook
On the economic front, the President shared an optimistic update. Despite the current hardships faced by many Nigerians, he asserted that the government’s policies are beginning to bear fruit and that the economy is on an upward trajectory.
“But I can promise you one thing: Nigeria will never give up. I am thankful for the chance to serve, and I will keep doing my job with loyalty and dedication. I can say that the economy has started to improve. It’s improving, and older people are slowly starting to feel some relief,” the President said.
