Same Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu @officialABAT .
We are so grateful for having this man as our president. Imagine having him as President 26 years ago.
May the good Lord continue to strengthen you Mr. President.
President Bola Ahmed Tinubu's resolve to make Nigeria truly independent, must really be hitting the West so hard that the next shenanigan is to give a dog a bad name in order to hang it. This is the time patriotic Nigerians must put their differences aside and fully back PBAT🙏🇳🇬
VIDEO: President Tinubu is a blessing to this nation — Every sensible Nigerian can see, Tinubu is the best things to happen to Nigeria in decades❤️🇳🇬 Rt📍
@DeleMomodu E pele sir. Unfortunately, choosing politics as a profession is wrong for you in the first place because you neither play it well nor analyse it with sense. So, in your own myopic opinion, the APC you look at doesn't appear to have eyes on the North, right? Dey play o.
PRESS STATEMENT
APC HAILS PRESIDENT TINUBU’S VISIONARY LEADERSHIP AS WORLD BANK AND IMF VALIDATE ECONOMIC REFORMS
The All Progressives Congress (APC) is heartened by global acclaim of President Bola Tinubu's economic reforms that are yielding extraordinary results, and signaling that Nigeria now stands on the cusp of prosperity of a kind never before seen in our history.
Under President Tinubu, Nigeria is creating a new and vibrant economic environment powered by diversification, inclusive growth and job creation rooted in increased local production. This progress marks a significant shift from the oil boom-and-bust cycles of the past, and heralds a new era of sustainable growth and development for Nigeria.
Economic growth is the most potent antidote to poverty and underdevelopment. It is a necessary scaffolding for lifting people out of poverty and unlocking their full potential. It generates and regenerates economic opportunities, creates jobs, boosts incomes, creates wealth, extends infrastructure and expands access to essential services. It is also the keystone for combating insecurity, promoting peace and national cohesion.
Our economy is on a remarkable growth trajectory, with Q2 2025 GDP growth rising to 4.23%, outstripping the International Monetary Fund’s (IMF) initial projection of 3.4%. This impressive performance of President Tinubu’s reforms has earned the IMF’s endorsement with its upgrading of Nigeria's growth forecast to 3.9% in 2025 and 4.2% in 2026. The World Bank's latest report further validates this trend, projecting Nigeria’s growth acceleration from 4.2% in 2025 to 4.4% in 2027, driven by the rapid expansion of services, agriculture, and other non-oil sectors.
What is more remarkable is that Nigeria’s strong economic performance comes against the backdrop of a slowing global economy. According to the World Bank, global growth is expected to decline from 3.3% in 2024 to 3.2% in 2025 and 3.1% in 2026, with advanced economies growing at a modest 1.5% and emerging markets barely above 4%. The IMF's latest forecast aligns with this trend, projecting global growth at 3.2% this year and 3.1% next year, representing a cumulative downgrade of 0.2 percentage points since its forecast a year earlier.
In this global context, President Tinubu's leadership and economic reforms have placed Nigeria as a standout performer, poised for sustained growth and development.
As we applaud the progress achieved by President Tinubu’s economic reforms, we also acknowledge persistent challenges of food inflation, poverty and infrastructure deficits. The World Bank highlights the pressing issue of food inflation with poor households allocating up to 70% of their income to food. Projections indicate poverty levels will reach 61% in 2025 and 62% in 2026, affecting approximately 139 million Nigerians.
The World Bank also forecasts a modest decline in poverty in 2027, expected to result from gains from the administration’s economic strategy and targeted interventions, including agricultural productivity initiatives and expanded social protection programs for the most vulnerable. The government's ongoing efforts to enhance fiscal transparency, strengthen public services, and massive infrastructure investments all support a strong and positive outlook for Nigeria, which will deliver more inclusive, equitable, and sustainable outcomes for Nigeria. The anticipated decline in poverty rate is consistent with the understanding that economic reforms are gestational and take time to yield all desired positive results, particularly at microeconomic levels.
The bold market-based reforms have sparked productivity and historic diversification, resulting in trade surpluses in over five consecutive quarters and shrinking fiscal deficits. Notably, trade surpluses increased by 44.3% in Q2 of 2025, reaching ₦7.46 trillion, while non-oil revenue rose by 40.5% to ₦20.59 trillion from January to August 2025. 1/2
