President Bola Tinubu emphasized his administration’s focus on improving Nigeria’s economy rather than on the 2027 elections during a gathering of All Progressives Congress (APC) leaders in Lagos.

Represented by Chief of Staff Femi Gbajabiamila, Tinubu called for patience from Nigerians and assured them of his commitment to genuine progress.

Gbajabiamila conveyed that Tinubu is dedicated to leadership that addresses current challenges for future generations, stressing the importance of courageous decision-making in difficult times.

He highlighted Tinubu’s concern for the masses and his relentless pursuit of economic reform.

Gbajabiamila said, “Mr President has asked me to convey his message, he knows he has taken very tough decision. He sees the light at the end of the tunnel. The time will come when we will all thank him for the decision.

”Mr President said I should let you know that he is not thinking of the next election but the next generation.

“For every moment in a country, a particular leader is produced for that time. This is the time to produce a leader that is courageous.”

Gbajabiamila added, “The challenges of our country is diverse, it is very immense. You cannot know the extent until you get there, I see that Mr President has nothing in his mind but the progress of Nigeria.

“For those of us who know him very well, he has a love for the masses. As the people are complaining, he is also pained but when a man has a strong conviction of what he is doing, he pursues it relentlessly.”
