“I’m correcting the mistakes of past administrations. Allow me to finish the work” — President Bola Tinubu tells Nigerians
President Bola Tinubu called on Nigerians to support his administration and grant him more time to complete his ongoing reforms.
The statement was delivered on his behalf by Tajudeen Abbas, the Speaker of the House of Representatives, during a special prayer session at the National Mosque in Abuja today, the 25 of September 2026. The event was held to commemorate Nigeria’s 66th Independence Anniversary.
The President emphasized that his administration is focusing on addressing and correcting the cumulative mistakes and missed opportunities of past governments of Obasanjo, Yar’dua, Jonathan and Buhari.
He urged citizens to remain hopeful and give the government the opportunity to finish its “good work,” implicitly seeking public backing ahead of the 2027 general elections.
According to the delivered speech, peace and economic development are gradually returning to the country, signaling that “there is light at the end of the tunnel”.
