I was with the Honourable Minister of Finance, Budget and National Planning @FinMinNigeria, Mrs Zainab Shamsuna Ahmed @ZShamsuna to discuss ways that the Federal and State Governments can work together to improve our country’s finances and address the current economic realities.
Yesterday, I attended the Night of Tributes held in honour of Innocent Chukwuma. Inno was exceptional – a sagely intellectual, a dogged activist, and a patriotic nation builder. He was one of the most iconic leaders of civil society in Africa.
Nigeria has been shortchanged by the loss of this consistent advocate of justice and equity. But the struggle must continue, as he would have wanted. Africa has lost a gem; indeed, one of the brightest in our firmament – I have lost my friend.
Adieu Inno. Goodnight!
Today, I presented the State of the State’s Accountability Report for the first quarter of 2021 at a consultative meeting with critical stakeholders comprising union leaders, traditional and religious leaders, youth representatives, and political office holders in Ekiti State.
Devoid of partisan or political interest, we feel it is absolutely necessary to share the key successes of our administration so far, the macro economic environment impacting the finances of our state, our efforts to remedy the situation, and the options before us.
We had a full and frank conversation on our current economic situation and the difficult choices we have to make together as Ekiti people. Together we will win!
