2025 Budget Unrealistic

He called for understanding and cooperation from Nigerians amid the prevailing economic realities.

“Nigeria is moving forward regardless of critics. This is a budget of restoration of hope, and Nigeria is on the path of recovery. We can’t finish the job in one calendar year.’

“There might be leakages here and there. We put a very effective control mechanism in place to monitor our budget releases, and those funds have been judiciously used.

“Consider the welfare of our service men and women, consider it. They are living and are operating in a very serious conditions. We have huge country, a very huge world, and lot of forests, unoccupied spaces.

“Give them credit for what they are doing. I am proud of what they are doing to date. No need to probe. I have confidence in my security architecture. It is very, very unfortunate that, you know, two decades of wanton killing.

“I remember when I jumped into the campaign. I had to stop the campaign to pay condolences to Maiduguri, Katsina, Kaduna, Yola. Today, you can still travel the roads. Before now, it was impossible.

“It takes one incident to mess up an organised environment. It takes one. You cannot say the military is not prepared. When the 9th Brigade Battalion was attacked, you can’t laugh at your nation because of that.
