Senate President Godswill Akpabio has commended President Bola Tinubu for restoring the hope of Nigerians for a viable and sustainable nation through transformative and courageous leadership.

Mr Akpabio, in a statement by his media adviser, Eseme Eyiboh, on Thursday, congratulated Mr Tinubu on his second anniversary in office.

He said the president, in the last two years, has placed Nigeria on a solid developmental pedestal using the Renewed Hope Agenda as his policy thrust.

“I commend President Tinubu’s unwavering commitment to the Renewed Hope Agenda, which is gradually revitalising our economy, improving the lives of Nigerians, rekindling hope in our people and building a brighter and prosperous future for our nation,” the Senate president said.

Mr Akpabio said Mr Tinubu’s initiatives and reforms, particularly in the areas of economic and fiscal policies, demonstrated his undying dedication to transforming Nigeria.

“Your drive and obsession to giving every section of the country a sense of belonging has clearly been demonstrated in the creation of development commissions in all the geopolitical zones. This is unprecedented in the annals of our nationhood.

“The level of infrastructural development as enunciated in the monumental ongoing projects across the country, such as the Lagos-Calabar Coastal High and the Lagos-Maiduguri, is a testament to your leadership signature and development conscious pedigree,” Mr Akpabio said.

According to Mr Akpabio, the president’s economic reforms are gradually turning Nigeria into the preferred business destination of local and foreign investors, with the naira making a strong rebound.

The Senate president also lauded Mr Tinubu’s achievements in the area of security, saying the Nigerian Armed Forces have intensified the war against terrorists and other criminal elements.

“No wonder you have received torrents of endorsements to return to office in 2027, just two years into your first tenure.

“These endorsements are certainly not a fluke but founded on verifiable performance in good governance and delivery on campaign promises and undiluted national consciousness,” Mr Akpabio said.

He reiterated senators’ commitment to collaborating with the executive to ensure the success of Mr Tinubu’s initiatives.

“Mr President, we appreciate your leadership and vision for Nigeria’s growth and development. We look forward to continued partnership and progress in the years ahead,” the Senate president added.
