Nigerians have no reason to be poor — Tinubu
President Bola Tinubu has reiterated his commitment to making Nigeria better, describing his countrymen as hardworking people but believes the nation has no reason to be poor.
Tinubu said this when he received a high-powered 62-man delegation, comprising leaders from both the governing All APC and the opposition PDP to the State House in Abuja on Thursday.
“We are not lazy people. We are richly endowed. We just need to be our brother’s keeper and good neighbours to one another.

I am not a President that will give excuses,” presidential spokesman Ajuri Ngelale quoted his principal as saying. “I will work hard for our nation with purpose, determination & dedication to create wealth for all Nigerians.
We have no reason to be poor! We will not look back, we will run aggressively forward.”
“Today, we may be swimming against the tide. But the waves will soon propel us forward from behind. We will achieve the goals & dreams of our forefathers.
