Our Team is working on bringing dividends of democracy to everyone in Nigeria. By supporting the most intelligent and capable man, President Bola Tinubu
Alhamdulillah.
My birthday is the one day of the year I take completely off. No calls, no internet, no / chosen company.
I go into my shell for a day. I pray, I sit with myself, and I thank Allah for another year. In that quiet I think about the people I want to give more of my time to, the ideas I still want to bring to life, and the things I have carried long enough to put down.
As this cycle wraps up in minutes, I have been thinking about fear.
In my mid-forties I have watched things I once dreaded arrive with surprising ease. I lost sleep over how I would cope, only to find that when the day came, I knew what to do. In all my rehearsals of the worst, I had forgotten to account for the woman I would be by the time it arrived.
Some things were every bit as hard as I imagined. Even then there was usually one thing that was mine to do. Make the difficult call. Keep my word. Be fair to the person in front of me, even when life had not been fair to me. Those small choices add up. Over time they have made me someone I can count on.
And this past year has been one of my most exciting. After nineteen years of telling other people's stories behind a microphone, I learned to vibe code and started turning ideas I had carried for years into living things. There is a particular joy in sending someone a link and watching them use something that existed only in your head a while back. I have sat down to fix one small thing and looked up hours later, already sketching the next build.
I had forgotten how much fun it is to be a beginner. Now I wonder what else I quietly talked myself out of, and how much of it I could start tomorrow.
I still have big plans, huge dreams, I want to keep taking on work that stretches me, the way speaking for a presidential campaign does, every single day.
I want to stay curious enough to change my mind. I also want to be present for the ordinary evenings with the people I love.
The moments I would most like to live again were so ordinary I barely noticed them at the time.
So I will make my plans, do my part, and leave the outcome with Allah. The woman who feared the worst has turned out to be good at the worst. I would like to find out what she can do with the best.
Ya Allah, You have carried me through every day I was afraid of and every day I did not see coming. Make what remains of my life better than what has passed, and the best of my deeds the last of them. Put barakah in my hands, so that what I build serves people long after I have forgotten building it. Keep my tongue truthful when it is easier to flatter, and my heart soft when it would be easier to harden.
Bless my love and children, who have carried me more than they know. Give me them for longer, and give me the sense to notice and appreciate their sacrifices.
Guide me, forgive me, and when my time comes, let me arrive with my record light and my faith whole. Ameen.

Happy Birthday to my dear aunty, Kemi Shittu-Asekun.
As you celebrate a new year today, may God Almighty continue to bless you.
For all the years we have been friends, I can say that you are one of the few people who are honest and humble. Your character and loyalty are unmatched. If you give your word on anything, you do not go back on it, a rare trait and value in our trade.
May you continue to grow in the favour and mercy of Almighty God.
Thank you for everything you have done for this progressive family ❤️

The Progressives NG celebrates you today and always.
Happy 66th Independence Day, Nigeria! 🇳🇬
Today, we celebrate the land of our birth, the giant of Africa, and the home of limitless potential.
66 years ago, our founding fathers and mothers dared to dream of a free and sovereign nation. Today, we stand on their shoulders, honouring their sacrifices and upholding their legacy as we forge a new path forward.
Nigeria is not just a country. It is a spirit. It is a people. It is a promise.
We are a nation of innovators, entrepreneurs, creatives, and resilient souls. Our diversity is our strength, and our shared hope is our bond.
Under the Renewed Hope Agenda, we are witnessing a new dawn — an era of bold reforms, massive infrastructure, and economic transformation. We are building a Nigeria that works for every citizen, regardless of tribe, tongue, or faith.
As we mark this 66th milestone, let us remember:
🇳🇬 We are stronger together.
🇳🇬 Our best days lie ahead.
🇳🇬 Nigeria will rise, and we will rise with her.
Happy Independence Day, Nigeria!
From all of us at The Progressives NG, we wish you a joyful and blessed celebration.
While President Tinubu was abroad, Nigeria recorded:
✔️ +$7 Billion – Gateway Deep Sea Port
✔️ $800 Million – IMA Gas Project (FID reached)
✔️ $700 Billion – Nigeria-US Mineral Investment Framework
✔️ $500 Million – Digital Free Zones & Itana Innovation
✔️ $12 Million – Abuja Centre for Entrepreneurship
✔️ Bolloré Group – Deeper Investment in Creative & Digital Economy
This is what economic diplomacy looks like. This is what leadership delivers.
The investments are real. The jobs are coming. Nigeria is open for business
More than 10,000 people in Oke-Oyi are already benefiting from reliable power, including six health facilities and schools, alongside businesses and households using electricity to work, produce and create new opportunities.
Alongside our partners, we commissioned the EU-funded 581kW interconnected solar mini-grid, with even greater impact expected as productive use expands across the community.
Under our Renewed Hope administration, Nigeria remains open to partnerships that deliver meaningful benefits at home and create opportunities for our people.
I welcome the agreement signed in New York by the Minister of Solid Minerals Development, Dele Alake @AlakeDele, and US Deputy Secretary of State Christopher Landau to deepen American investment in Nigeria’s mining sector and help unlock the potential of our mineral resources, estimated at about $700 billion.
From the beginning, we made a deliberate choice to move Nigeria away from simply extracting and exporting raw minerals. We tied new mining licences to local value addition and have worked to attract investment into processing and refining here at home.
That policy is already producing results. New processing plants are being established, billions of dollars in investment commitments have entered the sector, and investor interest in Nigeria’s critical minerals continues to grow.
Our ambition now is to deepen this progress across the entire mining value chain, from exploration and extraction to processing, refining and manufacturing.
At every stage, Nigerians must benefit. Our geologists, engineers and technicians must find work. Our young people must acquire new skills. Local contractors, transporters and suppliers must have opportunities to build businesses. Processing closer to where minerals are found should bring industry, infrastructure and better livelihoods to mining communities.
We are also changing what Nigeria sells to the world. We want to process more here, manufacture more here and export higher-value products.
The agreement with the United States builds on the progress we have already made. We welcome partners who bring capital, technology and expertise and are prepared to create value with us here in Nigeria.
Our mineral wealth must create Nigerian jobs, grow Nigerian businesses and bring greater prosperity to the communities where these resources are found. This is how we turn the reforms we have made into opportunities for every Nigerian.
Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR
President
