“We have no reason to be poor! We will not look back; we will run aggressively forward. Today, we may be swimming against the tide. But the waves will soon propel us forward from behind.

We will achieve the goals and dreams of our forefathers. I am inspired by the nation of people I now lead,” President Tinubu declared.

As the nation’s captain and primary advocate, he acknowledged the high expectations of the people and emphasized the need to reverse current trends and unlock possibilities within a short timeframe.

President Tinubu also reaffirmed the importance of accountability and press freedom in his administration.
