Secretary to the Government of the Federation, George Akume, has expressed confidence in the economic direction of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s administration. He declared that the bold reforms introduced by the President are beginning to produce measurable results. Speaking during a public event in Abuja, Akume stated that the nation is already seeing signs of positive change and renewed investor confidence.
Akume supports Tinubu’s economic reforms and believes that these changes are correcting years of structural imbalance. Although the journey is challenging, he explained that the steps taken so far have been necessary and long overdue. According to him, Tinubu’s economic policies are designed to build a stronger and more resilient Nigeria.
He praised the administration’s efforts in tackling inflation, improving revenue generation, and reducing dependency on oil. These changes are hard but essential, and the President’s courage to confront them deserves recognition, Akume noted. No meaningful progress can be made without enduring temporary discomfort.
During his remarks, Akume emphasized that governance requires courage, strategy, and foresight. Tinubu has demonstrated all three in less than a year in office, he said. He also credited the current administration with setting the foundation for a more productive economy, one that can support industries, grow jobs, and improve the welfare of citizens.
Akume supports Tinubu’s economic reforms not only as a government official but also as a Nigerian who understands the pain many citizens face. The reforms are not abstract policies but real actions that will help improve lives over time, he added. He urged Nigerians to remain patient and trust that better days are ahead.
He also spoke about the ongoing efforts to attract local and foreign investors. Nigeria is becoming more attractive to business partners due to its improved fiscal discipline and policy direction, according to him. Recent partnerships and trade agreements show the world is taking Nigeria seriously again.
Akume called on the media, civil society, and private sector to support the reform process. National progress is a shared responsibility, and everyone must play their part, he said. He encouraged state governments to align their plans with the federal reform agenda and ensure that benefits reach the grassroots.
He concluded by assuring Nigerians that the current administration will not relent in delivering meaningful progress. The government is aware of the sacrifices being made and will not let them go to waste, Akume emphasized. He reaffirmed his commitment to serve the country with integrity and to support policies that bring real development.
With his steady voice and positive outlook, George Akume continues to emerge as a strong pillar in President Tinubu’s team. His public support for the reforms adds credibility to the administration’s economic direction and reassures Nigerians that the road to prosperity, though tough, is on track.
