Godswill Akpabio, the President of the Senate, on Monday declared that President Bola Tinubu had “done a lot for Nigerians,” insisting that the achievements of the administration would give the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) enough to present to voters ahead of the 2027 general elections.
Akpabio said the Tinubu administration inherited an economy in crisis but had introduced reforms which, according to him, had significantly altered the country’s economic fortunes.
He spoke in Uyo, Akwa Ibom State, while receiving members of the Senate Committee on Tertiary Institutions, TETFund and NELFund, led by Dandutse Mohammed, its Chairman.
A statement issued by Jackson Udom, his Special Assistant on Media, quoted Akpabio as saying, “The current President has done a lot for Nigerians. He met an economy in shambles. When he came in, 27 states could not pay salaries and pensions but today, the story has changed because of his reengineering and thinking out of the box.”
The Senate President said the administration’s record would become a major selling point for the APC as the 2027 elections approach, declaring that the party would have sufficient achievements to campaign on.
