As President Bola Tinubu's administration approaches its second year, the Minister of Information, Mohammed Idris, has dismissed claims of external influence on the president, asserting that Tinubu makes decisions independently after consulting widely. The declaration comes as the APC formally endorses Tinubu for 2027, signaling continuity amid ongoing economic reforms.
  • Leadership Style: Tinubu listens to diverse viewpoints but ultimately makes his own decisions, according to Minister Idris.
  • Renewed Hope Agenda: The administration describes its policies as transformative, focusing on infrastructure, local production, and digital expansion (90,000km of fibre optic cables underway).
  • Subsidy Removals: The government defends its contentious petrol and forex subsidy removals as necessary for long-term economic stability.
  • 2027 Endorsement: APC governors and Senate President Akpabio have endorsed Tinubu as the party’s sole candidate for the next election.
  • "Nigeria First" Policy: Federal agencies must prioritize locally made goods and services to boost industrialization.
While Tinubu’s leadership style faces scrutiny, his administration is pushing forward with bold economic policies, backed by his party’s early 2027 endorsement.
