…..Hails Tinubu’s strategy
Vice President Kashim Shettima has reassured Nigerians of a sustained appreciation of the national currency, the naira, against the US dollar, emphasizing the strategic understanding of President Bola Tinubu in maintaining the currency’s value.
Shettima, speaking from his office at the Presidential Villa in Abuja, stated this during a recent interaction with a delegation from the Lagos Chamber of Commerce and Industry, led by its president, Gabriel Idahosa.
The Vice President’s remarks, as conveyed by his media aide Stanley Nkwocha, highlighted Tinubu’s commitment to ending fuel subsidies and unifying the exchange rates to curb overnight wealth accumulation, as observed under the previous system.
Shettima further highlighted the government’s proactive stance on economic stability and growth, stating that they will engender a robust economy.
He stated: “Naira went haywire and some people were celebrating but inwardly we were laughing at them because we knew that we have the leadership to reverse the trend.
“Asiwaju knows the game, and truly the naira is gaining and the difference will drop further.”
The Vice President also noted that the quality of leadership provided by Tinubu as governor of Lagos laid the foundation for the massive development witnessed in the state.
“We will always thank President Tinubu for providing the blueprint for the development of Lagos that we are seeing today.”
