The First Lady, Senator Oluremi Tinubu, has said the country’s economy would witness improvement in the next two years of President Bola Tinubu’s administration.
She said she has embarked on several journeys and it appeared to her that people are not seeing what God is doing in the land.
Mrs Tinubu, who spoke at the palace of Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, on Thursday, said Tinubu was not the cause of the current hardship ravaging the country.
Noting that the current administration was only making efforts to secure the future of the country, the First Lady further said Tinubu’s presidency is accountable.
“What is happening in the country, we are just two years into our administration, we are not the cause of the current situation. We are trying to fix and secure the future.
“I have embarked on several journeys but it seems that people are not seeing what God is doing in the land. Nations across the globe want to do business with us, legally, on the table. There is a government in power now that they know it is accountable.
“We know that subsidy has been removed but with God on our side in the next two years, Nigeria will be greater than this. Those who attempted removing subsidy before could not see it through. But with your prayers in the next two years we will build a nation for the future,” Tinubu said in Yoruba language.
She called on youths in the country to key into several opportunities being made available by the Federal Government, saying Nigerians should be patient and embrace the virtue of hard work.
She assured all that Tinubu would not disappoint Nigerians, adding that initiatives that would make Nigeria work for future generations were being introduced by the current administration.
She said, “Nigeria will be great and sweet again. When we started in Lagos, many doubted us, they abused us but see the transformation in Lagos now, it is generating its money and running on its own.
“Nigeria is a land of prosperity, to make it work for the coming generation is what we are doing. We are satisfied already, myself and my husband, we are not greedy but we thank God for what God has done for us.
“It is not common for rich people to get to this seat but I am grateful to God. We can not disappoint Nigerians and with the help of God, we are getting to the promised land in no distant time.”
