President Bola Tinubu has described Nigeria as a crawling country in the committee of thriving economies, especially in terms of development indices relating to green energy and the environment.
He however assured that while on the saddle as President of the most populous African nation, he is determined to change the narrative and bring about transformation in the country.
Tinubu, who played host to the German Chancellor, Olaf Scholz, at the Presidential Villa Abuja, also used the forum to comment on the Supreme Court judgment affirming his election as president, saying the court verdict has put paid to needless distraction from his political opponents.
He said the business community in Nigeria is not averse to forging partnership with Germany, being one of the largest economies in Europe. He reminded Scholz that Nigeria is also the largest economy in Africa, which is equally blessed with a good environment, time of weather and mineral resources.
