This is what subsidy removal is doing after years of prolonge underdevelopment associated with payment of same subsidy and FX arbitrage.
Join us today as President Tinubu flags off the dualization of Ibadan - Ijebu Ode Road project.
This is a landmark achievement!
Today, at the 29th and 30th Convocation Ceremonies of Lagos State University (LASU), we celebrated the hard work and brilliant achievements of our graduating class.
Since this marks my final convocation visit as Governor, I wanted to recognize exceptional dedication by awarding a cash gift of ₦20 million each to our top overall graduating students from the last two academic sessions.
Congratulations to Ayilara Lawal Olawale (Project Management, 4.96 CGPA) for the 2024/2025 session, and Adebanjo Samuel Oluolamide (Aerospace Engineering, 4.97 CGPA) for the 2025/2026 session.
Reaching this height demands relentless focus and both of you have shown exactly what discipline can accomplish. Lagos is deeply proud of you, I am proud of you and my commitment to investing in our youth remains firm through my very last day in office.
To everyone else graduating today, congratulations. You’ve worked very hard and deserve all the accolades.
My friend, a lecturer at UNILESA (University of Ilesa, Osun State), said all the staff in his department voted for Gov. Adeleke.
According to him, they were previously ADHOC staff earning ₦30k. Adeleke came in, made them permanent, increased their salaries and cleared their salary arrears.
Many Osun residents also said he paid their parents’ outstanding pensions and salary arrears.
Imagine voting for a governor simply because he paid your pension.
Perhaps Nigerians are not asking for too much.
Just give people the basics, and you may not need to campaign too much.
Congratulations to the Adelekes. Well deserved!🎉

Dear President @officialABAT
I have seen your willingness to improve the deep sea drilling of oil in Nigeria which aligns with my dream and aspirations.
I am a Petroleum Engineer with Masters in International Oil and Gas Management, with different research projects in the oil and gas fiscal policies, determining the volume of hydrocarbons in place, synergies amongst IOCs and backward linkages, Energy security in Africa and Eurasia amongst others.
I hereby seek audience with you to offer my input in this exercise.
Warm regards,
God bless Nigeria
God bless the President of the Federal Republic GCFR

Dear Nigerians,
For many years, Nigeria has possessed some of the most promising deep offshore oil and gas resources in the world, yet several major developments have remained stalled. Oil lies beneath our waters. We have the engineers, businesses and young people capable of doing increasingly sophisticated work in the sector. What has often been missing is the certainty required for investors to commit billions of dollars, over many years, at the scale needed to turn that potential into production, jobs and opportunity for Nigerians.
We cannot afford to leave that opportunity beneath our waters for another decade.
I have therefore signed the Deep Offshore Oil and Gas Projects Incentives (Tax Remission) Order, 2026, to provide clear and predictable terms for a new generation of deep offshore investment in Nigeria.
The framework has the potential to unlock up to $50 billion in investment, beginning with the approximately $10 billion Bonga South West project. For existing deep offshore leases, there is a clear window to reach Final Investment Decision by 31 December 2029 and receive the full standard incentive available under the Order.
There is urgency to this work. Capital moves, and countries compete for it every day. The countries that attract long-term investment are not necessarily those with the greatest natural resources. They are the ones that provide the greatest certainty.
Nigeria must be one of those countries.
This Order marks the tenth major policy directive of my administration targeted specifically at the oil and gas sector. Each has dealt with a constraint holding back investment, production or value creation. Taken together, they represent a deliberate effort to make our oil and gas industry more competitive, attract capital back to Nigeria and ensure that more of the value created from our resources remains here at home.
But attracting investment is only half of my purpose.
I want the work that comes with these projects to come home to Nigeria. I want our engineers involved, our fabrication yards working, our marine and technical service companies securing contracts, and our young people acquiring skills that will remain valuable long after the first barrel is produced.
The Order reflects this priority. For projects accessing its supplementary incentives, activities are to be performed in Nigeria, subject to clearly defined exceptions and Nigerian Content requirements.
My ambition is that we use this new investment cycle to build Nigeria into Africa’s regional hub for deep offshore project execution. We should not only possess the resources. We should increasingly possess the skills, businesses and industrial capacity required to develop them.
When I engaged the Chief Executive Officer of Shell plc, Mr Wael Sawan, I directed my team to look beyond a solution for one company or one project. We needed a framework that could unlock a wider pipeline of investment while protecting Nigeria’s long-term interests.
That framework is now in place.
Ultimately, I will judge its success by what Nigerians see from it in terms of good jobs, stronger Nigerian businesses, greater production, increased revenues for the Federation and new capabilities built here at home.
Our natural resources must work harder for our people.
That is the purpose of this decision, and we will pursue it with urgency.
Nigeria First.
