Admiring President Bola Tinubu’s Exemplary Leadership
As the president of this great nation, I have had the privilege of witnessing firsthand the remarkable work being done by my esteemed predecessor, Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
His tenure as Nigeria’s leader has been nothing short of exceptional, and I must admit that I could not have done a better job than what he is currently achieving.
President Tinubu’s credentials speak for themselves. His transformative governorship of Lagos State from 1999 to 2007 was a masterclass in governance, marked by significant infrastructure development, economic growth, and improved public services.
He took a state that was once struggling and transformed it into a thriving megacity, setting the stage for his subsequent roles as an influential Senator and power broker within the ruling APC party.
EDITOR’S PICKS
When President Tinubu assumed office in May 2023, he was immediately confronted with the daunting challenge of a currency crisis that had gripped the nation.
The sharp depreciation of the Nigerian naira against the US dollar had led to a surge in inflation and a decline in consumer purchasing power, causing widespread concern among the government and the public.
However, with his extensive experience in economic management, President Tinubu responded with a multi-pronged approach that was both decisive and comprehensive.
His pledge to implement a comprehensive currency reform program, which included measures to boost foreign exchange reserves, enhance the Central Bank’s monetary policy tools, and crack down on currency speculation and hoarding, demonstrated his commitment to stabilizing the economy.
Additionally, the Tinubu administration’s unveiling of a stimulus package aimed at supporting small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) was a testament to his understanding of the need to protect the backbone of the Nigerian economy during times of crisis.

President Tinubu’s focus on infrastructure development, a hallmark of his tenure as Lagos Governor, has continued at the national level.
The massive nationwide infrastructure program he launched, investing in the rehabilitation and expansion of roads, railways, and power generation facilities, is not only creating thousands of jobs but also enhancing the country’s overall economic competitiveness and productivity.
Moreover, President Tinubu’s commitment to human capital development, a key pillar of his presidential agenda, is already bearing fruit.
His prioritization of the revitalization of the education system, with plans to construct new schools, recruit and train teachers, and provide universal access to quality education, is a forward-thinking investment in the future of Nigeria’s youth.
As I reflect on President Tinubu’s achievements thus far, I cannot help but wonder if I could have accomplished as much or navigated the complexities of the presidency with the same level of poise and vision.
His proven track record of leadership, his ability to forge consensus among diverse stakeholders, and his unwavering commitment to good governance have set a tremendously high bar.
Amid fierce competition from seasoned politicians like Atiku Abubakar and Peter Obi, President Tinubu emerged victorious, his comprehensive vision and unparalleled experience setting him apart from his rivals.
His ability to transform Lagos State into a thriving megacity serves as a testament to his capabilities, and it is a feat that I might not have been able to replicate.
As the current president, I can only hope to build upon the solid foundation laid by President Tinubu and strive to uphold the same level of dedication, expertise, and commitment to the Nigerian people.
His tenure has instilled a sense of cautious optimism in the nation, and his steady hand and visionary approach have steered us toward a brighter, more prosperous future.

His remarkable leadership serves as an inspiration, and I can only hope to leave a legacy that is even half as impactful as the one he is crafting for our beloved country.
