Governor Uzodinma Commends Tinubu’s Economic Vision
Imo State Governor, Senator Hope Uzodinma, has lauded President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for what he described as “transformational economic policies” that are making Nigerians rich again and reigniting confidence in the nation’s financial future.
Speaking during a public event in Owerri, Uzodinma said Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda has started yielding tangible economic results, especially in the areas of foreign exchange reforms, agricultural investment, SME funding, and infrastructure renewal.
“Under President Tinubu, Nigerians are regaining their wealth and dignity. His policies are empowering entrepreneurs, stabilizing markets, and reviving industries that were once struggling,” Uzodinma stated.
Economic Policies Driving the Change
The Imo governor pointed to several key reforms championed by the Tinubu administration as reasons for renewed optimism:
1. Fuel Subsidy Removal: Redirecting billions of naira toward infrastructure and social programs that create jobs.
2.Foreign Exchange Unification:Boosting investor confidence and encouraging foreign direct investment.
3. Digital Economy Growth: Expansion of fintech, startups, and digital trade helping young Nigerians earn globally.
4. Agricultural Investments:Large-scale agro projects and grants improving food production and export opportunities.
5. Tax and Fiscal Reforms:Encouraging local manufacturing and reducing dependency on imports.
Uzodinma emphasized that although the economic reforms initially caused hardship, they are now creating long-term stability and opportunities for Nigerians across different sectors.
He added that Imo State is already benefiting from the federal policies through improved infrastructure, empowerment programs, and new industrial clusters.
“Tinubu’s leadership is practical and visionary. It focuses on productivity, not politics. Nigerians are beginning to see the difference — wealth creation through enterprise, not dependency,” Uzodinma concluded."
Public Reactions and Expert Analysis
While some Nigerians agree that Tinubu’s reforms are necessary for growth, others argue that inflation and high living costs remain major concerns.
Economic experts believe the benefits of the reforms will become clearer in the mid-term (2025–2026) as new investments mature and energy reforms stabilize.
