You Won’t Believe What Nigeria’s Info Minister Just Said About Tinubu’s AchievementsThe Minister of Information and National Orientation, Mohammed Idris, has declared that the Tinubu administration’s accomplishments within its first two years are undeniable proof of visionary and bold leadership.
He made this statement during the inaugural National Dialogue on Citizen Engagement and National Security held in Abuja on Tuesday, themed “One Voice, One Vision: Uniting Perspectives for a Stronger Nigeria.”
The Minister highlighted that the dialogue comes at a critical moment when Nigeria stands at a crossroads of purpose and opportunity.
Idris emphasized that the event, organized by the Voice of Nigeria (VON), is not just a platform for policy discussions but a purposeful effort to align government policies with the everyday realities of Nigerian citizens.
“Just last week, we marked the second anniversary of the Tinubu administration, which has delivered overwhelming evidence of its significant positive impact,” he said.
He asserted that no previous government in Nigeria’s democratic era has achieved as many reforms and milestones in such a short span.
“Never before has any administration shown the courage to dismantle the burdensome oil subsidy and forex malpractices while simultaneously driving major infrastructure projects, launching a groundbreaking student loan scheme, and establishing CreditCorp—policies reigniting hope and confidence among our youth,” Idris added.
The Minister noted that these initiatives are already producing visible results.
“After a challenging start, food prices are stabilizing, insecurity is being curbed, and governance is making strides with new local government autonomy, the establishment of ministries focused on regional development, and a historic boost in agriculture through the Federal Ministry of Livestock Development,” he explained.
He praised President Bola Ahmed Tinubu as a leader whose vision and courage are increasingly embraced by Nigerians nationwide.
Highlighting the purpose of the dialogue, Idris stressed that national unity and public trust are fundamental to Nigeria’s security.
“There can be no true national security without unity, and unity cannot exist without trust. In times of crisis, our strongest tool is not force but the trust between citizens and their leaders,” he said.
He described the government’s Renewed Hope Agenda as a citizen-driven initiative where every Nigerian feels acknowledged and valued.
The Minister also commended the Voice of Nigeria for its evolving role beyond broadcasting to shaping national identity and narratives across all Nigerian languages and regions.
“Whether broadcasting from Berlin or Birnin Kebbi, in Hausa, Yoruba, Igbo, or English, VON ensures that Nigeria’s voice is heard, respected, and trusted, reflecting a united people within a secure nation,” Idris stated.
Calling for collaboration among government, media, civil society, and security agencies, he emphasized the importance of synergy over isolated efforts.
“This forum embodies that vision, bringing stakeholders together not to talk past one another but to genuinely listen and cooperate,” he added.
Finally, the Minister underlined that Nigeria does not need uniformity to achieve unity. Instead, the nation can celebrate diversity while pursuing common goals.
“This dialogue exemplifies that ideal, providing a platform where differences are embraced as part of the solution. I urge us to leave here with a renewed commitment to truth, equity, transparency, and compassion in our media, institutions, policies, governance, and communities,” he concluded.
