The National Chairman of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), Professor Nentawe Yilwatda, has assured Nigerians that the ongoing economic reforms initiated by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu are strategic interventions that will guarantee expansive prosperity for the nation in the years to come.
In a statement by his Special Adviser on Media and Information Strategy, Abimbola Tooki, the APC National Chairman acknowledged that while the economic policies have demanded immense sacrifice, patience, and resilience from citizens, clear and measurable indicators show that the country is steadily returning to a path of sustainable growth, national renewal, and enhanced productivity.
Professor Yilwatda, speaking shortly after the successful conduct of the party’s nationwide primary elections for the House of Representatives, said President Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda was never designed as a short-term populist gimmick.
He described the agenda as a bold, necessary vehicle aimed at correcting decades of structural distortions that have historically weakened national productivity, discouraged foreign direct investment, and constrained Nigeria’s economic competitiveness.
While admitting the real economic pains being experienced by many Nigerians—particularly regarding inflationary pressures and the high cost of living—the APC chairman maintained that the federal government is actively mitigating these challenges through targeted socio-economic interventions, infrastructure investments, robust support for local industries, and the strategic expansion of critical sectors.
