Speaker of the House of Representatives, Hon. Abbas Tajudeen, has said Nigeria’s future under the administration of President Bola Tinubu has become brighter than it was envisioned.
Abbas, in a statement by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Musa Krishi, said this at the Progressive Governors’ Forum (PGF) Renewed Hope Ambassadors Strategic Summit, with the theme, ‘Taking Renewed Hope ToThe Grassroots: One Party, One Message, One Mobilisation Framework, held at the State House Banquet Hall, Presidential Villa, on Tuesday.
The speaker noted that the PGF-Renewed Hope Ambassadors Strategic Summit was designed to establish a single, unified framework for promoting the achievements of President Tinubu, across the grassroots of Nigeria.
He added that it was aimed at ensuring consistent messaging, and countering misinformation on government policy reforms.
Abbas declared that every member of the ruling All Progressives Congress should be a Renewed Hope ambassador.
“The future is now even brighter than we envisioned. Projections point to a conservative GDP growth of 4.49 per cent or as high as 5.5 per cent or more.
“This is beyond global averages, and should by all means be celebrated as a success story. We are, therefore, at a juncture where the progressive report card of this APC administration must be boldly and proudly presented before the Nigerian public.
“We must do this deliberately and eloquently so that the people can actually see the positive impacts, and so that the pain of reforms can give way to optimism.
“We must continue to promote the progress of progressive programmes like the Renewed Hope Ward Development Programme, which aims to bring about 10 million Nigerians into productive activity; the efforts to enhance non-oil revenue.
“To reduce interest rates, and to create the fiscal impetus for infrastructure and human capital development; and the focus on agriculture, manufacturing, mining, and digital innovation to drive inclusive growth. These should all form the basis of our engagements with the grassroots.
“I do believe that every APC member should be an auxiliary member of the Renewed Hope Ambassadors. This movement represents our great party’s powerful engine for grassroots mobilisation and should not be an optional platform.
“Its presence in all the 774 local government areas makes it easy for Ambassadors to be at the vanguard of spreading the truth of our achievements, countering misinformation, building public confidence, and preparing the ground for even greater victories in the next elections.”
