Tinubu’s reforms already yielding positive results – APC

Sen. Ajibola Bashiru, APC National Secretary, says the transformative policies of President Bola Tinubu’s administration are already delivering positive and expected outcomes.

Bashiru made this known on Monday in Ibadan, during a media roundtable organised by the Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ), Zone B.

Our correspondent reports that Zone B, led by Vice-President Mrs Ronke Afebioye-Samo, comprises all six South-Western states.

Bashiru said Tinubu’s policies — from subsidy removal, naira floatation, student loans, infrastructure drive to agricultural interventions — are showing impressive progress nationwide.

According to him, subsidy removal has increased national revenue, with the government generating ₦9.1 trillion in the first half of 2024.

“Over 4,000 roads are under construction across Nigeria. IMF debt has been cleared, and genuine foreign investments are returning,” Bashiru stated.

He highlighted food sovereignty, agricultural intervention, and success of the student loan scheme as key achievements of Tinubu’s government.

“Recently, the Federal Government launched 2,000 tractors for mechanised farming, distributed across 15 states.

“Several billions have also been released as intervention and social security funds to support small businesses and ease economic hardship.

“These efforts are commendable. I can confidently say we are now seeing light at the end of the tunnel,” he added.

Bashiru affirmed that Tinubu’s policies have placed Nigeria on a path of progress while addressing inherited economic challenges.

He urged Nigerians to support the administration, assuring that more people-focused policies will be implemented to uplift the nation.
