Tinubu: Nigeria meets 2025 revenue target ahead of schedule

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu announced on Tuesday in Abuja that Nigeria achieved its 2025 revenue target as early as August, attributing the milestone to ongoing economic reforms and the growth of the non-oil sector.

Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, disclosed that the President made the remark during a meeting with founding members of the defunct Congress for Progressive Change (CPC) and The Buhari Organisation, led by former Nasarawa State Governor, Senator Umaru Tanko Al-Makura. The President affirmed that the economy has now become stabilised and more predictable.
“The economy is now stabilised. Nobody is trading pieces of paper for foreign exchange anymore. You do not need to know the CBN Governor to obtain forex or import goods. What we need now is building the ship and vessels for export and creating more jobs for our people,” he said.

The President outlined ongoing priorities under the Renewed Hope Agenda, including infrastructure development, improved healthcare, agricultural mechanisation, food sovereignty, and national security. He revealed plans to establish mechanisation centres across the country to boost capacity, cultivation, and harvest, while training youths to drive food security.

Reflecting on his political journey with the CPC, President Tinubu pledged to honour the legacy of former President Muhammadu Buhari, including plans to establish a Buhari House. He assured that more CPC members would be integrated into his administration.

The Speaker of the House of Representatives, Rt. Hon. Tajudeen Abbas, commended the President’s inclusiveness and support for Katsina State. Al-Makura, on behalf of the delegation, reaffirmed their loyalty and pledged continued support for the success of Tinubu’s administration and the APC ahead of the 2027 elections.
