The Federal Government has defended the difficult decisions taken by President Bola Tinubu’s administration since it came into office in 2023. Minister of Information and National Orientation, Mohammed Idris, said the government decided to tackle some of the country’s long-standing problems instead of pushing them forward.
Idris spoke on Thursday during a ministerial briefing in Abuja ahead of Nigeria’s 66th Independence celebration. He admitted that the decisions were difficult and had caused real hardship for many Nigerians. According to him, however, the country is now gradually moving from the difficult period of reforms and stabilisation towards economic growth.
