President Bola Tinubu has stated that he is not the kind of person to blame past administrations for the socio-economic and security challenges Nigeria is facing.
Tinubu stated this while speaking on Monday, March 11, at the flag-off of Agric Mechanisation Revolution for Food Security in Minna, Niger State.
He added that he is committed to taking the right actions to re-engineer the finances of the country and stay on the right path to achieve progress.
Also, the President said that he’s carrying out the right reforms to set the nation on the path of prosperity.
He said;
“When you read the papers, some of us are confused whether to abuse the present or the past (governments) or make excuses for the future.
“(It’s) not in my dictionary. Take action now, do your best, re-engineer the finances of the country, and stay ahead on the right path. Those who may be complaining now have to understand that perseverance and consistency will make a nation great.
“It is that time for Nigeria to face the challenge and make it an economic opportunity. We must care for people and harness our farming population, including livestock farming.”
Furthermore, Tinubu also said that he is committed to ending economic sabotage caused by herders whose cows destroy farmlands.
He said;
“I know what it means as an act of economic sabotage when for roaming cows to eat up the crops and vegetation of our lands. I know it could be painful but when we reorient the herders and make provision for cattle rearing, this will end.
“You are the governors who must provide the land. Provide us with the land. I, as the President, I am committed to giving you in two, three weeks, a comprehensive programme that will end this problem.”
