"The more I know Him, the more I know myself’
I'm really glad this lyric line has been resonating with a lot of you...
Tell me though, in your own words, what does it mean to you?
WANT TO GROW is still streaming on all platforms.

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.

BOLA AHMED TINUBU, GCFR
President, Federal Republic of Nigeria
29th May 2026
Before the removal of fuel subsidy, Rivers State was receiving around N18 billion monthly, while Obio/Akpor got about N450 million.
Last month alone, R/S eceived N50 billion, while Obio/Akpor received roughly N1.31 billion.
But on X, I am still asking Tinubu where the fuel subsidy money is going.
You don't understand how public wage works.
At N70k minimum wage, the FG personnel wage bill is currently N10trn in a total budget of N58trn. At 500k minimum wage, the FG will need N100trn to pay salaries alone with consequential adjustments and allowances. How will the states cope? Will you ask the CBN to print N70trn for you in a year?
How will the private sector cope without creating massive inflation in the price of goods and services and job losses?
You don't like taxes, you don't like loans, you don't like PPP or private capital. Is it the 1.4mbpd oil production that you plan to use to fund your wage bill? Just show us the road map to your populist idea.
FLASH: Dangote refinery has reduced its gantry price of diesel by N200 from N1800 to N1600. The dramatic reduction happened after several vessels carrying imported petroleum products reportedly berthed at Nigerian ports.
Competition over monopoly any day. Nigerians benefit. ✅
Nigerians who studied the numbers before removal knew there was only one way out for our economy. Ours wasn’t even making sense , we were subsidizing two things at the same time with crazy loopholes and opportunities for people to make crazy money.
Your N1,000,000 in 2022 would have become 100,000 now if we hadn’t removed the subsidy . The Senegalese President is a populist which is why he wouldn’t consider removal. A pragmatic technocrat will remove subsidy.
Not easy in a poor and developing country tbh. I wish Senegal well. It’s a tough situation for them.
Two lessons to learn:
1. The fuel subsidy would have crippled Nigeria’s economy if Tinubu hadn't removed it without consultation.
2. There is no young messiah as the Obidients have portrayed; see Senegal (🇸🇳).
We’ve waited for this one… and now it’s here ⚡️
At the core… more than just a song, my prayer is that this awakens something in you.
That hunger to know God more.
That desire to open your Bible again and again.
That longing to grow.
WANT TO GROW 🍼— Audio out now.
Sharafadeen Alli would have been a great governor to succeed Adebayo Alao-Akala. At that time, the state was still crawling.
We began to leap under Abiola Ajimobi and truly started flying under Seyi Makinde.
We cannot afford to return to underdevelopment. 🙂↔️
Meanwhile I know a country that the president has paid off all IMF loans and has not defaulted in any loan repayment.
The president has also led his country to an improved credit rating . First time in 12 years.
Nigerians rejected Peter Obi today. Decisively.
For a movement whose greatest weapon was social media, the public collapse of the Obidient brigade carries a particular irony. They had reach. They had noise. They had numbers online. What they chose to do with all of it was weaponise hate, traffic in vitriol, and dress bigotry up as political conviction.
Power without responsibility is just a mob with a megaphone. That is precisely what they were.
They will not be missed. This is the first day of the last days of the Obidient group. ADC funerals will handle the rites.
