Tinubu inherited an economy in shambles — Akpabio

The Senate President of Nigeria, Godswill Akpabio, has stated that President Bola Tinubu's administration has made significant strides despite inheriting a dire economic situation. When Tinubu took office in 2023, 27 states were unable to pay workers' salaries and pensions, but the current administration has since reversed the trend.

Akpabio claims that the President's innovative thinking has led to unprecedented achievements, which Nigerians will highlight during the 2027 general elections. He defended the 10th National Assembly's legislative efforts aimed at improving the lives of citizens, covering areas such as economy, agriculture, security, education, and fiscal policy.

Akpabio also reminded the opposition that they have no record of accomplishments to match the government's achievements.
