President Bola Tinubu said that Naira would have been so worthless, it would be moved about by wheelbarrow if not for his economic policies that moved Nigeria away from the brink of financial collapse.<\/p>\n

Tinubu, the presidential candidate of All Progressives Congress, APC, said this during his visit to Akwa Ibom State, where he urged voters to support his administration and Governor Umo Eno.<\/p>\n

He described the January 16, 2027 election as consequential, saying it would determine the country\u2019s direction. <\/p>\n

Defending his economic policies, Tinubu said his administration had moved Nigeria away from the brink of financial collapse.<\/p>\n

According to him, \u201cThis coming election, on January 16th is a consequential election. It will define the direction of this country.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen I took over, 27 governors out of 36 of this country were unable to pay salary, not to talk of pension, and gratuity. Today, I can say that we are out of that tunnel. <\/p>\n

\u201cAnd I can beat my chest to say we are out of the despair, the dark tunnel of uncertainty and the calamity of a possible bankruptcy.<\/p>\n

\u201cBy now if we didn\u2019t take over, if we didn\u2019t do what we did, we will be using the wheelbarrows to move our naira about because it will have become valueless.\u201d<\/p>\n

On young voters<\/h4>\n

The President urged the electorate, particularly young people, to obtain their Permanent Voter Cards, PVCs. He described it as their most potent instrument for determining the country\u2019s political future.<\/p>\n

At a reception held in his honour at Ibom Palm Resort, Tinubu praised Eno. He described the resort as evidence of purposeful leadership and the possibility of reclaiming environmentally degraded land for productive use.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are standing on a resort to the glory of God. It is a product of 73 acres of land of gully erosion, reclaimed, surrounded with a good, romantic, artificial lake, demonstrating a serious vision that is achievable when honest people are working for their homes,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
