2027: Why Tinubu must stay to sustain economic reforms, says Abdullahi

Kashifu Inuwa Abdullahi, director-general of Nigeria’s National Information Technology Development Agency (NITDA), called in Abuja on Thursday for Bola Ahmed Tinubu to be re-elected in 2027. He said the president needs more time to consolidate economic reforms, despite the immediate difficulties they bring. Abdullahi compared the reforms to a painful but necessary operation to remove cancer and urged officials to help young Nigerians understand their long-term effects. He said the policies are beginning to build investor confidence, citing international interest and investment in Nigeria.
