Tinubu’s reforms laying foundation for Nigeria’s prosperity – FG

From Aidoghie Paulinus, Abuja

The Federal Government, has said that the reforms of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, are laying the foundation for the nation’s prosperity.

The Minister of Information and National Orientation, Mohammed Idris, who stated this during a courtesy visit by the Director-General of Friends of Tinubu Reforms (FTR), Agbor Ebipade, a national support group for the President’s Renewed Hope Agenda, called on Nigerians to support President Tinubu’s reforms.

The Special Assistant to the Minister of Information and National Orientation, Rabiu Ibrahim, in a statement issued in Abuja, said the group was at the minister’s office to introduce the organisation and seek partnership with the ministry in promoting government’s reforms at the grassroots.

“President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s reform agenda is designed to take Nigeria to greater prosperity. The removal of the fuel subsidy, one of President Tinubu’s major reforms, together with the unification of the foreign exchange, are two programs the president needed to implement to stabilise this country. It is so easy to forget that some states could not pay salaries, but that is not the case since President Tinubu assumed office,” Idris said.

The minister highlighted government’s interventions in education, agriculture, security and infrastructure, including student loans and major road projects.

The Minister said Nigerians needed accurate information about government policies and their intended benefits, adding that sustained public engagement would help citizens understand the reforms and participate in the country’s development.

“I thank you for putting together this compendium of reforms. Every part of this country deserves to know what this administration is doing. Government officials alone cannot communicate government programmes effectively. We need partnerships with civil society organisations, voluntary groups and support groups like yours to explain these reforms to Nigerians across the country,,” Idris also said.

Speaking earlier, Ebipade said the organisation was established to promote the President’s Renewed Hope Agenda and strengthen communication between the government and the people.

He also said FTR planned to launch a compendium of reforms to explain government policies at the grassroots and requested the Minister’s support for the initiative.

“We put together this compendium because President Tinubu is working, and we need all Nigerians to see the good work that he is doing”, Ebipade said.

In the course of the visit, Ebipade also invited the minister to serve as the organisation’s Grand Patron, expressing confidence that his support would strengthen FTR’s efforts to promote public understanding of the administration’s reforms.

The Minister welcomed the group’s initiative and reaffirmed the Ministry’s commitment to communicating government policies and programmes in clear and accessible language.
