President Bola Tinubu defended his administration's economic reforms at the Asiwaju Scorecard Series and Policy Roundtable in Abuja, stating they were necessary for achieving a $1tn economy by 2030. Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar criticized the policies, questioning why Nigerians had to endure hardship before relief measures were promised.
Tinubu, represented by Prof Nentawe Yilwatda, highlighted improvements in foreign reserves, revenue mobilisation, trade, and GDP growth under the reforms. In contrast, Atiku accused the administration of responding belatedly to a cost-of-living crisis that had persisted for over three years.
