Today, I received the Head of the European Union Delegation to Nigeria, Gautier Mignot, accompanied by Frederik Klinke, President of the European Business Chamber in Nigeria (EUROCHAM), on a courtesy visit to my office.

Our discussions centred on fostering deep collaboration, sharing innovative ideas, and ensuring that our immigration frameworks seamlessly support genuine international investments while safeguarding Nigeria's national interests.

Nigeria is moving decisively away from slow, manual, and vulnerable legacy processes. We are building an automated, transparent network where foreign experts can manage their work permits directly, completely cutting out middlemen and unauthorised agents.

The Renewed Hope Agenda of His Excellency, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, is focused on ensuring that expert talent adds real, measurable value to the Nigerian economy, particularly through proper tax compliance.

By collaborating closely with the EU and EUROCHAM, we are meeting in the middle to create a balanced, world-class system that welcomes global expertise while firmly honouring the sovereignty and economic integrity of our dear nation.

Today, I received the comprehensive report of the Independent Investigative Panel on alleged corruption, abuse of power, torture, cruel, inhumane, and degrading treatment against the Nigerian Correctional Service.

The committee, chaired by the Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Interior, Dr Magdalene Ajani, completed this huge task after eighteen months. This milestone marks a critical step forward following the inauguration of the panel in November 2024.

The findings will serve as a strong foundation for transforming our correctional facilities from mere places of incarceration into true centres of rehabilitation, reformation, restoration, and reintegration.

The rate of recidivism has drastically declined from 11,616 inmates in 2023 to 1,382 inmates in 2025, due to intentional rehabilitation efforts. Currently, 62 inmates are pursuing postgraduate studies, 261 are undertaking undergraduate programmes, 1,125 are in ongoing studies, and 9,582 others are participating in non-formal vocational training in various skills.

As I stated in my address, the essence of a correctional service must be transformational and corrective, ensuring compliance with the law while protecting society and restoring hope.

As a government, we are committed to ensuring that no Nigerian, whether free or in custody, is left behind. We will move aggressively from this report to a robust implementation strategy, supported by effective monitoring and evaluation frameworks that will deliver lasting change.

Our goal is clear. Never again should our correctional centres be associated with dehumanisation, corruption, or discrimination. They must become places where lives are rebuilt and inmates are prepared as valuable assets for the growth and development of our dear nation.

From Locally Engineered Farm Equipment To Greenhouse Technology For All-season Farming, @NASENIHQ’s Amedi Lafia Is Playing A Vital Role In Transforming Nigeria’s Agricultural Landscape.

As President Bola Ahmed Tinubu (@officialABAT) marks three years in office, the National Agency for Science and Engineering Infrastructure (@NASENIHQ) is spotlighting the impactful contributions of its Agricultural Machinery and Equipment Development Institute (AMEDI), Lafia, in advancing Nigeria’s food security and agricultural transformation agenda.

Under the visionary leadership of NASENI’s Executive Vice Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Khalil Suleiman Halilu (@KSHalilu), AMEDI has continued to champion the development and deployment of locally manufactured agricultural machinery and equipment aimed at improving farm productivity, reducing post-harvest losses, and accelerating the adoption of modern farming techniques across the country.

A major milestone recorded by the institute is the introduction of its greenhouse agriculture initiative, which promotes year-round farming, enhances crop yields, and supports climate-smart agricultural practices. The initiative is helping farmers overcome seasonal limitations while boosting sustainable food production.

Through innovative, technology-driven solutions and strategic interventions, AMEDI is strengthening agricultural mechanization, creating employment opportunities, empowering farmers, and contributing significantly to the Renewed Hope Agenda’s objective of achieving food sufficiency, economic growth, and national food security.

STATE POLICE CONSTITUTIONAL FRAMEWORK NEAR COMPLETION- PRESIDENCY 

Significant progress has been made towards establishing state police, with a constitutional amendment expected soon, following months of consultations among the Executive, the National Assembly and security authorities. 

The Chief of Staff to the President, Hon. Femi Gbajabiamila, disclosed this on Thursday while briefing State House Correspondents after a consultative meeting on state police convened by the Presidency, held at the State House, Abuja. 

Gbajabiamila said deliberations on the proposed state police framework began several months ago following a directive by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, noting that the process has gained considerable traction. 

He explained that establishing state police requires careful consideration of constitutional and legal issues and cannot be implemented hastily. 

"We started deliberations in the last three or four months on how to go about the establishment of state police as directed by Mr President. 

"Establishing state police is not something that you do with the snap of the fingers. There is a lot involved in terms of constitution and legalities, and thank God we have now gained a lot of traction.  

“Hopefully, the amendment will come shortly, and the details of the amendment will come after that," Gbajabiamila added. 

According to him, discussions have now advanced to the point of considering the necessary constitutional amendments, with the enabling legislation to follow afterwards. 

"Right now, what we are looking at is the constitutional amendment itself, and then the enabling law would follow thereafter. That is what we have been deliberating on in the last couple of hours," he added. 

The Chief of Staff highlighted broad national support for the initiative, emphasising that the debate is no longer about whether state police should be establishedbut about creating the appropriate legal and institutional framework for its operation. 

He said President Tinubu, who has consistently advocated for state police as part of efforts to strengthen Nigeria's security architecture, would receive a comprehensive report on the meeting's outcome. 

The meeting is part of a series of consultations convened by the Federal Government to develop a workable framework for the establishment of state police, an initiative aimed at strengthening internal security, improving local intelligence gathering and enhancing the capacity of sub-national governments to address emerging security challenges across the country. 

President Tinubu has maintained in the last few months that state police is a necessary response to Nigeria's evolving security challenges, advocating that a decentralised policing structure would strengthen grassroots security, enhance intelligence gathering and improve the protection of lives and property across the country. 

The meeting was attended by the Deputy President of the Senate, Jibrin Barau, the Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Benjamin Kalu and the Inspector-General of Police, Tunji Disu, among other senior government officials.

SECURITY AND NATIONAL UNITY

Security remains central to our national mission and to the creation of a virile and prosperous society. Our Armed Forces and security agencies have intensified operations against terrorists, bandits, kidnappers, oil thieves, and criminal networks. While challenges remain, many communities and highways are becoming safer and more economically active. We continue investing in intelligence, surveillance, logistics, technology, and inter-agency coordination. We are improving the capabilities of our armed forces and security agencies, and reclaiming the authority of the Nigerian state wherever criminality threatens peace and order. While we continue to confront the challenges head-on, progress is being made. I want to assure you that this government will not relent until every Nigerian can live, work, travel, and dream in safety.

My fellow Nigerians,
A nation develops when its people can see and touch progress. From highways under construction to rail modernisation and expanded energy investments, our goal remains clear: to build a Nigeria that works for Nigerians.

We have not solved every problem, and we are not yet where we want to be. But the foundation for recovery has been laid. The task before us now is clear: we must ensure that the benefits of reform are felt more directly in the daily lives of ordinary Nigerians.

We shall achieve this task by continuing to ensure that food prices, which have largely come down from their peak in 2023/2024, remain low.
We are also working to reduce transportation costs as operators of commercial trucks, buses, and taxis convert their petrol engines to CNG and switch to electric vehicles. We have also set our sights on creating more opportunities for decent work and enabling enterprise expansion.

Usman Yau (Darazo), please STAY AWAY from this matter. That your father was able to secure you a House of Reps ticket does not mean you should protect injustice and the denial of a fair playing ground for politics to others. Bauchi state is known for high-level and matured politics, not the kind of corrupt nonsense that took place at the Governorship Primaries. Mallam Alwan is not looking for relevance. He doesn't need it. You are still young and a very lucky beneficiary of the APC, at your age, learn to stand with what is right. There is a long journey ahead. Take care.

STATEMENT BY PRESIDENT BOLA AHMED TINUBU (GCFR) ON THE THIRD ANNIVERSARY OF HIS ADMINISTRATION, MAY 29, 2026

My fellow compatriots,

Three years ago, you entrusted me with the sacred responsibility of leading our beloved nation at a defining moment in our history. I accepted that responsibility, fully aware of the magnitude of the challenges before us, but also deeply confident in the resilience and potential of the Nigerian people.

Today, on the occasion of the third anniversary of our administration, I speak to you not only as your President but also as a fellow citizen who understands the sacrifices many families have made in recent years and shares your hopes for a better Nigeria.

When this administration assumed office, our nation faced profound economic and structural difficulties. Mounting fiscal pressures, unsustainable fuel subsidies, declining revenues, exchange-rate distortions, rising debt-servicing costs, insecurity in several parts of the country, energy supply constraints, and declining public confidence in institutions all threatened our progress.

At the height of the subsidy regime, Nigeria was spending as much as ₦18.4 billion daily to sustain petrol subsidies—over ₦4 trillion in 2022 alone—resources that could have been invested in roads, healthcare, education, housing, and critical infrastructure. Multiple exchange rate windows and forex arbitrage created massive distortions, with Nigeria losing more than ₦8 trillion over three years to rent-seeking and speculative practices.

The situation demanded urgent and courageous action. Difficult but necessary decisions had to be taken to stabilise the economy and prevent a deeper national crisis. The easy choices would have been politically convenient. But leadership demands courage, especially when the right decisions are difficult.

Had we refused to act, our nation would have drifted toward fiscal breakdown, worsening poverty, and severe economic uncertainty. Together, we chose reform over ruin and decisiveness over hesitation. We chose long-term national recovery over short-term comfort.

These decisions came with sacrifice. The rising cost of living triggered by our measures placed enormous pressure on families, workers, and businesses. Young people searching for jobs felt discouraged. Many questioned whether these difficult decisions would lead to a better future.

I remain deeply conscious of those sacrifices, and I assure you: your sacrifice has not been in vain. And today, I can say with confidence that Nigeria has stabilised and is moving forward again. Across the country, visible progress is taking shape.

VISIBLE PROGRESS AND ECONOMIC GROWTH

Our economy is now more competitive and better positioned for sustainable growth than it was in 2023. Public finances are improving. States and local governments have greater resources to invest in their people. Investor confidence is growing. The stock market is booming, with the All Share Index rising from 53,000 and market capitalisation of N30 trillion in 2023 to a record All Share Index of 250,000 and market capitalisation of N160 trillion this year. Companies are declaring record profits and dividends.

Critical infrastructure projects are advancing at an unprecedented scale. Over 2,700 kilometres of highways and major roads are under construction, reconstruction, or rehabilitation, including the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway, the Sokoto-Badagry Super Highway, the Abuja-Kaduna-Zaria-Kano Road, the East-West Road, and many rural access roads. Significant sections are already completed or nearing completion, improving transportation, reducing travel time, boosting regional trade, and creating thousands of jobs.

Rail modernisation projects are ongoing to improve connectivity, logistics, and economic integration across the federation.

[Bola Ahmed Tinubu @officialABAT]

Fellow Nigerians,

Three years ago, on this day, I first addressed you as your President. I pledged courage in leadership, honesty in reform, and commitment to rebuilding the foundations of our economy.

The decisions we have taken since have been difficult but necessary. Today, the signs of recovery, resilience, and renewal are visible across our country.

In honour of this milestone, and as a precursor to Democracy Day, today, across all six geopolitical zones, over twenty groups of strategic projects in energy, health, enterprise, education, and public works would be commissioned.

Under the Midstream and Downstream Gas Infrastructure Fund, four flagship projects today. FEMADEC Energy at the Federal University of Technology, Owerri — the first of twenty CNG refuelling stations in our federal universities. Portland Gas at Ojota, Lagos — a 96,000 SCMD CNG mother station, with a daughter station in Kubwa, Abuja. Ibile Oil and Gas, with its network of fifteen CNG refuelling stations across Lagos State. And Rolling Energy at Jahi, Abuja — anchoring a portfolio of seventeen RLNG and LCNG facilities across Kaduna, Kano and Borno. Together, these projects will lower transport costs, expand cleaner energy, and strengthen our energy sovereignty.

In the health sector, thirteen new projects today across all six zones — every one of them ribbon-cut on the ground today. Six new facilities at our federal teaching hospitals: the President Bola Tinubu Complex at the Federal Medical Centre, Abuja; the Trauma Centre Pharmacy Quality Control Laboratory at Ahmadu Bello University Teaching Hospital, Zaria; the Infertility and Assisted Reproductive Technology Centre at Abubakar Tafawa Balewa University Teaching Hospital, Bauchi; the new Mental Health Complex at the University of Maiduguri Teaching Hospital; the new Administrative Complex at the University of Nigeria Teaching Hospital, Enugu; and the Laboratory Complex at the University of Uyo Teaching Hospital.

Also commissioned are the State Emergency Operations Centres in Kano, Sokoto and Katsina; the newly constructed Lagos Vaccine Hub in Oshodi; and the National Emergency Medical Service and Ambulance System fleet — one hundred and forty-five tricycle ambulances, six boat ambulances, and seventy-nine new ambulances for our federal hospitals.

Two revitalised primary health centres at Gadon Kaya in Kano and Aboh in Delta State. These two stand for the almost three thousand primary health centres our administration has revitalised under the IMPACT programme over the last two years, alongside twenty-seven equipped Comprehensive Emergency Obstetric and Newborn Care sites, one thousand six hundred and two revitalised Level 1 facilities, and one thousand three hundred and sixty revitalised Level 2 facilities, together bringing quality care closer to ordinary Nigerians in every zone.

Alongside these, the new SMEDAN Industrial Development Centre at Ikorodu, Lagos, and additional projects in education and public works being delivered across the country.

These projects are not ceremonial symbols. They are evidence that the Renewed Hope Agenda is being felt in homes, businesses, schools and hospitals across our federation.

Today is the commemoration of our inauguration. It is not a day for long speeches. On June 12, our Democracy Day, we will present our full scorecard to Nigerians.

And so, by the authority vested in me as President and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, I hereby declare all these projects — across our health system, our energy infrastructure, our enterprise, our education and our public works — duly commissioned, and dedicated to the service of the Nigerian people.

The work continues.
The reforms continue.
And our resolve remains unshaken.
Thank you, and may God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
