I am so happy to be home!

Lagos is more than the centre of excellence. It is home to excellent people with excellent aspirations for their individual and our collective well-being. I am blessed that this bustling city of commerce, culture and character is where my career in public service began.

Today in Ebonyi, “the Salt of our Nation”, I reiterated my belief in the entrepreneurial spirit that is the hallmark of the South East. I have a record of encouraging Igbo businesses and investments in Lagos and will even do more if I become president. There can be no discrimination against any section of our country if we are to be a great nation. Most important, I intend to encourage policies to aid commerce and support South East states to reach their full potential - removing hindrances to trade, improving economic access,

#RenewedHope2023

Today, I joined the ongoing 3rd Ministerial Performance Review of the President Muhammadu Buhari led government being held in Abuja.

Sustainable governance and good government are the bedrock upon which resilient economies are built. This was the underlying theme at KADINVEST 7.0, the investment summit of Kaduna State led by it’s performing Governor, Mallam Nasir El-Rufai.

2/12

Like all decent Nigerians, I am angered and troubled by the terror and cruelty being visited upon the people of Borno, Yobe, Benue, Niger, Imo and other parts of the nation. 2. These attacks have caused many to disparage our military and security forces. This we must not do. Valiant men and women serve in our security forces, risking their lives to protect us.

I received with profound shock the news of the death early this morning of Mr. Yinka Odumakin, spokesman of Afenifere, committed fighter for democracy, dedicated civil society activist... 2. courageous and outspoken defender of whatever ideals and principles he believed in and a patriotic citizen in every sense of the word.

We Celebrate, Not Mourn Jakande- Asiwaju Tinubu

It is with utmost sorrow and distress that I commiserate with you on the dastardly and inhuman killing of dozens of farmers in Zabarmari, Jere Local Govt Area of Borno State, on Saturday 28th Nov 2020 2. The cold-blooded murder of these innocent citizens, toiling to eke out a living for themselves and their families and provide food security for our nation is not only callous but satanic.

THE #ENDSARS PROTESTS; A FUNDAMENTAL LESSON IN DEMOCRATIC GOVERNANCE

I heavily grieve for those who have lost their lives or been injured during the period of these protests. 2. My deepest sympathies go to their families and loved ones for none should have been made to pay such a dear price. My career as an active politician spans nearly three decades.

NIGERIA’S 60th INDEPENDENCE ANNIVERSARY STATEMENT

Independent For Good Reason

Three score years ago, our people determined to amend their political relationship with the world as well as the relationship among themselves. 2.
