President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has proudly declared that his administration has achieved Nigeria’s 2025 revenue target ahead of schedule, attributing this success to improved non-oil revenue performance and comprehensive economic reforms. Speaking during a meeting with members of The Buhari Organisation, the political family of late former President Muhammadu Buhari, at the State House Abuja, Tinubu revealed that the target was met as early as August 2025.
Highlighting key achievements, the president noted that Nigeria’s economy is stabilizing with a more predictable exchange rate, improved foreign exchange policies, and growing confidence in non-oil sectors such as exports, imports, and industrial growth. Since Tinubu took office, the naira's exchange rate has improved from ₦1,900 to the dollar to ₦1,450, reflecting stronger economic fundamentals.
President Tinubu also announced the signing of a mechanisation programme aimed at advancing modern agriculture across all regions of Nigeria to achieve food security and sovereignty. He stressed that defeating hunger is the critical path to defeating poverty in the nation.
Rejecting concerns about global economic pressures, including trade policies from the US, Tinubu expressed confidence that Nigeria’s diversified revenue streams and economic reforms provide resilience. He further assured Nigerians that his government remains committed to transparency, honesty, and justice the values inherited from Buhari.
The president was commended by political allies, including Speaker of the House Tajudeen Abbas, who pledged unwavering support for Tinubu’s administration and his re-election bid in 2027. The Buhari Organisation members praised Tinubu for honoring Buhari’s legacy and guiding Nigeria toward sustained economic growth.
