Nigerian Naira Is Top Performer Among Global Currencies – Tinubu Declares

President Bola Tinubu says his administration will keep making tough decisions for the Nigerian people, Despite the short-term suffering that sometimes accompanies such decisions.

President Tinubu stated that while Nigeria has seen the worst of storms, he was not frightened of the repercussions of his actions since they were in the greatest long-term interest of the people during a meeting with Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte on Thursday, April 25 in The Hague.

President Tinubu, who met Rutte at his official house, The Catshuis, in The Hague, noted that Nigeria provided enormous trade potential to the Netherlands across a range of industries. He also mentioned that his administration was already deepening measures to improve the investment climate.

The president revealed that Nigeria, with its high-grade lithium resources, was well-positioned to power Europe’s and the world’s clean energy future.

Reiterating that Nigerians had great self-confidence, he said that his faith in them allowed him the strength to take tough decisions on their behalf, even if he was fully aware of the necessity of providing them with the long-term resources they require for success.

“I am a determined leader of my people. I have and will continue to take the difficult decisions that will benefit our people, even if there is short-term pain. We have gone through the worst of the storms. I am unafraid of the consequences once I know that my actions are in the best long-term interests of all Nigerians.

Taking a holistic view of the world order, there is a tremendous opportunity between us across trade spheres, but especially in solid minerals, where we have high-grade lithium deposits that we know can power the clean energy future of the world.

There is excellent value-additive opportunity in Nigeria. The world knows us for oil. They will soon know us for greater innovative exploits in other areas.” [CONTINUE READING HERE]
