The Lagos State Chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has proudly reaffirmed its confidence in the leadership of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, a leader whose compassion, focus, and decisiveness continue to shape Nigeria’s journey towards stability, growth, and prosperity.
According to Mogaji (Hon) Seye Oladejo,
Lagos APC Spokesman, “At a time when our nation is navigating complex economic and security challenges, President Tinubu has shown that he possesses the courage to act, the empathy to care, and the vision to deliver”.
“From his very first day in office, President Tinubu demonstrated the will to confront long-standing obstacles that had crippled Nigeria’s development. His bold and decisive removal of the fuel subsidy – an action many of his predecessors dared not take – was not a gamble but a historic reform aimed at freeing the nation from a decades-long fiscal burden. This was complemented by monetary and fiscal reforms that laid the foundation for a stronger and more sustainable economy.”
“What sets President Tinubu apart, however, is not only his decisiveness but also his compassion. Cognizant of the impact of subsidy removal, he immediately approved palliatives, wage awards for workers, conditional cash transfers for the most vulnerable, and funding for mass transit schemes to reduce transport costs. His empathy was further reflected in his swift interventions during natural disasters such as floods and fire outbreaks, ensuring relief and rehabilitation packages reached affected Nigerians without delay.”
“The President’s focus is most evident in the Renewed Hope Agenda, a detailed blueprint prioritizing food security, economic diversification, infrastructure renewal, energy reforms, human capital development, and national security. In agriculture, dry-season farming, fertilizer support, and mechanization are being expanded to boost food supply and curb inflation. In the energy sector, reforms are encouraging investment in renewable sources while expanding generation and distribution to deliver reliable electricity.”
“In infrastructure, President Tinubu has kept faith with Nigerians by rolling out transformative projects. The Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway, one of Africa’s most ambitious projects, is not just a Lagos story but a national corridor connecting states, boosting trade, tourism, and investment. Similarly, the Lagos-Calabar rail line and renewed work on the Kano-Kaduna-Abuja rail reflect his determination to knit Nigeria together seamlessly. Lagosians have also witnessed the expansion of deep-sea port operations, road network upgrades, and investments in the technology and creative industries – developments that mirror similar efforts across the country.”
“On national security, the President has acted decisively. By overhauling the armed forces’ leadership, investing in modern equipment, and redefining their mission, he has restored confidence in the capacity of the state. Insurgents, kidnappers, and bandits are increasingly on the defensive as the security agencies record significant progress in reclaiming territories and protecting lives.”
“Equally remarkable is his foreign policy. By repositioning Nigeria as a global economic and diplomatic player, President Tinubu has attracted billions in foreign direct investments across energy, mining, agriculture, and digital innovation. His firm yet balanced leadership of ECOWAS during a turbulent period reaffirmed Nigeria’s role as the anchor of West African stability.”
“In all of these, President Tinubu has shown himself to be a compassionate leader who listens, a focused leader who plans, and a decisive leader who acts. As a son of Lagos, he has carried the same inclusive, visionary, and pragmatic governance model that transformed Lagos into Nigeria’s economic capital onto the national stage. Today, the benefits are already visible not just in Lagos, but across every region of our country.”
“The Lagos APC remains proud of the President’s achievements and reassures Nigerians that the bold steps being taken today are laying the foundation for lasting prosperity. President Tinubu is indeed compassionate, focused, and decisive – a leader for the moment and for the future.”
