As the government of President Bola Tinubu is perceived to have failed in virtually all fronts, the president has sent the FCT minister, Mr Nyesom Wike, the minister of works, Mr Dave Umahi and others to an international press conference in London to counter the negative narratives about the administration and showcase its achievements.
The others in the London voyage are the minister of interior, Mr Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo, chief executive of the Nigerian Upstream Petroleum Regulatory Commission (NUPRC), Mr Gbenga Komolafe, managing director of the Federal Mortgage Bank of Nigeria, Mr Usman Osidi, chairman of the Federal Inland Revenue Service, Mr Zacch Adedeji, among others.
The Project Internal Coordinator of the President Bola Tinubu Mid-term Legacy Projects Review Committee, Mr Bode Adeyemi, announced this to journalists yesterday in Abuja.
He said the president’s emissaries will present their ministries’ achievements using various methods to create a more positive image, such
Adeyemi said the ministers and heads of departments and agencies will use the opportunity to showcase the Tinubu administration’s achievements and legacy projects.
“President Bola Tinubu’s government has made unprecedented achievements under twenty-four months of administration despite all the distractions and the global economic situation. We have painstakingly taken detailed records of all major achievements of this administration and confirm that every well-meaning Nigerian and the international community alike should be proud of the Midas touch President Bola Tinubu has given to Nigeria’s leadership, which has culminated in a verifiable success story, he said.
“All the projects have been put together as a compendium and also a version put into a website that would be launched during the forthcoming event. We commend honourable ministers, Director Generals of agencies, heads of commissions and departments for their relentless efforts that have brought about the success this administration has recorded,” he said.
For his part, chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), UK Chapter, Mr Tunde Doherty, said the London show would present the right narrative about governance in Nigeria to the international community and dispel opposition propaganda about President Tinubu’s administration.
He defended the Tinubu administration, saying it had made milestone achievements in infrastructure, economy, security, job availability, healthcare development, aviation and digital economy.
“The singular fact that Nigerian and private refineries started production under this administration is an unforgettable achievement. The local government autonomy push by the President is another giant stride, and the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Road, Sokoto-Badagry superhighway, IMF debt repayment, removal of subsidies that have doubled allocation to states, enforcement of the rule of law and security are giant strides the Tinubu administration will always be remembered for,” Doherty said.
