APC Leaders Support Tinubu's Economic Reforms in Abuja

Stakeholders of the All Progressives Congress (APC) defended President Bola Tinubu's reforms during an event in Abuja, asserting that he has established a solid foundation for Nigeria's development. The stakeholders, part of the Tinubu Movement for Sustainable Governance Foundation (TMS), praised Tinubu's shift in focus from subsidizing consumption to promoting production, innovation, and investment.

Kashifu Inuwa Abdullahi, the Director-General of the National Information Technology Development Agency (NITDA) and National Coordinator of TMS, outlined eight priority areas under the Renewed Hope Agenda, including economic reform, national security, agriculture, energy resources, infrastructure, health and education, industrialization, and governance improvement. He stated that these reforms are crucial for building investor confidence, citing recent investments like the Dangote Refinery and a $1 billion data center by a South African firm.

Inuwa emphasized the importance of equipping Nigerians with skills to support these reforms through initiatives like digital literacy training and vocational education.
