“We have assessed your performance, and Mr President, I am happy to announce that we have scored your performance 100 per cent,” Uzodimma said.

The APC governors commended the president’s reforms, which they said had restored stability and provided Nigerians with renewed hope. They also lauded his fatherly interventions in times of need and his visionary leadership.

“You have virtually recovered Nigeria from the road of collapse to that of stability and survival. We, your field officers at the subnational level, are indeed very, very grateful,” Uzodimma added, according to a video shared by The Cable on Saturday.

He further reaffirmed the governors’ support for Tinubu’s administration and pledged to promote its economic policies within their states.

“We want to inform you, Mr President, that we are proud to be your ambassadors at the subnational level. We are here to defend your policies, to preach your message, and to let Nigerians know that we have come out of darkness and that the right light is now ready to shine. You brought us hope, and we believe in you,” he said.

The endorsement comes as the Tinubu administration continues to face criticism over rising living costs, attributed to the removal of fuel subsidies and the floating of the naira in 2023. While the government maintains that these economic reforms have prevented national collapse, reports indicate that many Nigerians continue to feel the impact of inflation and poverty.

According to the APC governors, however, the president’s fiscal policies, including tax reforms, have positioned Nigeria on a path toward economic recovery, even as the nation navigates the challenges of high inflation and global economic pressures.
