Nasir El-Rufai confesses in a viral video that four years is not enough for a political office holder to make ‘meaningful changes’. Yet he is at the forefront of the gang of political desperados plotting President Tinubu’s ouster, just two years into his tenure. What a contradiction!
In contrast to the political laggards and underachievers who were once governors in Anambra, Rivers and Kaduna, President Tinubu and his team have implemented meaningful changes in our country over the past two years, positioning us on the path of prosperity. The positive indicators are all there for the world to see—for example, increased foreign reserves, the highest in 44 months. Phenomenal wealth creation in the stock market has seen ASI skyrocket from 53,000 points to over 140,000 points. Over N26 trillion in additional wealth has been created in the market under Tinubu’s watch.
The exchange rate has been harmonised, and arbitrage eliminated. Investment inflow has increased. The inflation rate has decreased in four successive months. GDP has grown by N103.5 trillion in two years. And it is still growing. Balance of payment surplus is being recorded quarter after quarter. Indigent students are being supported by a revolutionary loan policy, using NELFUND as the vehicle. Vulnerable Nigerians are receiving cash from the Humanitarian Ministry.
National revenue has increased phenomenally, and the record is expected to be broken again this year and possibly next year, when the revolutionary tax reform is implemented. States and local councils are receiving more funding from the centre, enabling them to undertake capital projects and create additional jobs. The governors said they have never had it so good.
Yet, these power-hungry politicians want the President, who has achieved so much, to be removed, all because they have become politically displaced and irrelevant.
May they never succeed in their plot against our nation and people.
Please check out the video in this post. We shall confront Nasir with this confession when electioneering starts.
