Independence Day: Tinubu Admits Hardship From Reforms, Says Sacrifices Are Necessary

President Bola Tinubu has urged Nigerians to work together to place the country on the same level as other nations around the world.

In his Independence Day address, Tinubu stated that Nigeria must focus on producing more goods, rather than just consuming.

He admitted that his government’s reforms, such as the removal of fuel subsidy, had caused hardship, but explained that the move was necessary to avoid an economic collapse.
