Tinubu’s foreign trips strengthening Nigeria’s global partnerships – Yilwatda

All Progressives Congress (APC) National Chairman, Prof. Nentawe Yilwatda, says President Bola Tinubu’s foreign travels and meetings with world leaders have significantly strengthened Nigeria’s global partnerships and attracted major investment commitments.​ In a statement by his Special Adviser on Media and Communications Strategy, Abimbola Tooki, Yilwatda said Tinubu’s trips are “purposeful actions” focused on economic cooperation, trade expansion and strategic alliances, not mere ceremonial visits.

Tinubu’s Reforms Deepening Poverty, Says Peter Obi

Former Anambra State Governor and Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, has criticised President Bola Tinubu’s administration, saying its much-publicised economic reforms are failing to lift Nigerians out of poverty. Obi’s comments followed a World Bank report released on October 8, 2025, which revealed that 139 million Nigerians now live below the poverty line—an increase from 87 million in 2023. In a post on X (formerly Twitter) on Tuesday, Obi described the figures as a “heartbreaking reflection” of how poorly the government’s policies have performed. “What this means is that in two years under the watch of the APC regime, over 50 million Nigerians were sent into poverty,” Obi wrote.“This is a heartbreaking reflection of how deeply our nation is failing its citizens.” He expressed concern that instead of treating the report as a wake-up call, the government dismissed it, […]

Can Nigeria Hit Its $1 Trillion Economy Goal by 2030? Unemployment Crisis Threatens Progress

Nigeria’s $1 Trillion Economy Ambition: How Unemployment Could Derail Progress Nigeria’s bold vision to achieve a $1 trillion economy by 2030 is under severe threat, with experts warning that worsening unemployment and underemployment rates could derail the initiative. As graduates flood an oversaturated job market and companies downsize amid economic pressures, the nation’s labor crisis is reaching a tipping point. The Unemployment Time Bomb Recent data from the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) reveals a labor force participation rate of 79.5% in Q2 2024, with rural areas (83.2%) outperforming urban zones (73.2%). While the employment-to-population ratio rose to 76.1%, these figures mask harsh realities: stagnant wages, factory closures, and a growing reliance on loans to survive.
