The Federal Government has declared that President Bola Tinubu remains undistracted by the emergence of an opposition coalition under the African Democratic Congress (ADC) platform, emphasizing that the administration continues to focus on its core mandate of delivering meaningful reforms and driving real economic growth for Nigerians.
In a statement released in Abuja on Tuesday, Minister of Information and National Orientation, Mohammed Idris, acknowledged Nigerians' constitutional rights to freedom of association and speech while asserting that the President would not be sidetracked by political distractions.
"The clamour in the media about the emergence of a new political 'coalition' is understandable, but Nigerians entrusted President Tinubu with a bold and transformative mandate, anchored in the Renewed Hope agenda," the statement read.
The Minister highlighted significant achievements in the administration's first two years, including a substantial reduction in crude oil theft, rebounding investor confidence in the oil and gas sector, easing inflation, stabilization of the Naira, and improved security measures across the country.
Idris also pointed to various initiatives benefiting millions of Nigerians, such as student loans, access to consumer credit, CNG vehicle conversions, and enhanced government services and infrastructure.
"Two weeks ago, the President signed four groundbreaking tax reform bills into law, marking one of the most ambitious fiscal overhauls in Nigeria's history. Set to be implemented from 2026, these reforms are expected to significantly boost prosperity for households and businesses nationwide," the statement continued.
The government further noted the recent commissioning of what it described as "the single largest mechanisation drive ever undertaken in Nigeria's history" through the launch of the Renewed Hope Agricultural Mechanisation Programme, aimed at guaranteeing food security.
According to the Minister, emerging coalitions and opposition groups prefer not to focus on Nigeria's progress. "The administration however refuses to be drawn into distractions engineered by those who would prefer stagnation over reform," he stated.
The statement concluded by reaffirming that "The Tinubu administration remains undeterred, focused, and committed to building a more prosperous Nigeria for all."
