Akpabio, Barau hail Tinubu’s transformative leadership
Senate President, Godswill Akpabio, has commended President Bola Tinubu for restoring the hope of Nigerians for a viable and sustainable nation through transformative and courageous leadership.
He said his bold initiatives and reforms, particularly in the areas of economic and fiscal policies, have demonstrated his undying dedication to transforming Nigeria to its deserving greatness.
“Your drive and obsession to give every section of the country a sense of belonging has clearly been demonstrated in the creation of development commissions in all the geopolitical zones. This is unprecedented in the annals of our nationhood.
“The level of infrastructural development as enunciated in the monumental ongoing projects across the country such as the Lagos- Calabar Coastal the Lagos- Maiduguri highways are testaments to your leadership signature and development conscious pedigree.
“The economic reforms are gradually turning Nigeria into the preferred business destination of local and foreign investors; with the Naira making a strong rebound coupled with your ambitious and purposeful fiscal policies.
“Mr President, your achievements in the area of security are wholesome and commendable.
“In the last two years, the Nigerian Armed Forces have taken the war against insurgency to the door step of bandits, terrorists and other criminal elements and the results are obvious and positive.
“No wonder, you have received torrents of endorsements to return to office in 2027 just two years into your first tenure.
“These endorsements are certainly not a fluke but founded on verifiable performance in good governance and delivery on campaign promises and undiluted national consciousness.
“The senate remains committed to collaborating with the Executive arm of government under your able and dynamic leadership to ensure the success of these initiatives.
“We recognise the challenges that lie ahead and pledge to work together to address them.
“Mr President, we appreciate your leadership and vision for Nigeria’s growth and development. We look forward to continued partnership and progress in the years ahead.”
Deputy Senate President, Barau Jibrin, also commended President Tinubu for laying the foundation for national transformation and economic revival despite inherited challenges, thereby placing it on the path to prosperity.
He noted that the administration had tackled major national challenges, particularly insecurity and economic instability, and was gradually recording progress.
“Mr President is working hard, day in and day out, to surmount the insecurity challenge. Hundreds of terrorists have been neutralised, especially in the North West. Most areas previously regarded as no-go zones have been recovered, and kidnapping incidents on the Abuja-Kaduna highway have reduced significantly.”
He also cited improvements in the South East, where activities of gunmen have declined, and ongoing efforts to contain Boko Haram in parts of Borno State.
Barau highlighted policy initiatives including the creation of regional development commissions and the establishment of new tertiary health and educational institutions as measures aimed at driving inclusive development.
He described the Nigerian Education Loan Fund (NELFUND) as “unprecedented,” adding that over 300,000 students had already benefited from the scheme.
He further noted that the recent endorsement of President Tinubu for a second term by APC stakeholders reflected the desire to allow him to consolidate on the reforms initiated since 2023.
Barau reaffirmed the commitment of the National Assembly to continue supporting the administration’s Renewed Hope Agenda.
“I call on Nigerians of all persuasions to continue to pray for our leaders and the well-being of our country and to offer their full support to President Tinubu as he resets our dear nation for peace and socio-economic prosperity,” he said.
