President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has reassured Nigerians that an end is in sight for the prevailing security and economic challenges.
They – challenges- will soon be over, Tinubu told members of the National Assembly, who were at the State House for the Iftar (Ramadan fast breaking) yesterday.
Tinubu expressed optimism that the challenges will not defeat Nigeria.
Acknowledging ongoing security concerns, Tinubu praised the armed forces and their leaders for their sacrifices and vowed to uphold their integrity and the country’s sovereignty.
He said: “Yes, we are definitely challenged. The security challenges around us, our armed forces are trying, but we will not allow them to undermine the integrity and the value of our armed forces and the leadership of the armed forces.
We will continue to encourage and fight for our sovereignty, our individual right to exist, banish poverty from our society.
“The national challenge that we face will be over, the economic challenge, we’re about turning the corner. Our revenue is improving and you can see it reflected in the subnationals. All we have to do is… and manage ourselves much better.
