He stated, “We started the new year with a very heartwarming broadcast by President Tinubu. The only broadcast that I enjoyed since he became president because it was quite positive.

“He says he was wishing every Nigerian a happy and prosperous new year. That is coming directly from Mr. President. He was praying also that the year will bring joy, success, and good health.

“He said, although 2024 posed numerous challenges to our citizens and households, in 2025, his government is committed to intensifying efforts to boost food production.

Archbishop Kaigama expressed hope that President Tinubu’s words will be backed by tangible actions, stating, “Let’s pray and hope that this is translated into concrete reality. It’s not just about a speech, but about how it is translated concretely into practice. That is my prayer. And please join me in this prayer that this will happen and it must happen.
