Nigerian newspapers review: Tinubu says Nigeria is rewriting its story of underperformance

At the Nigerian Economic Summit Group (NESG) meeting in Abuja, President Bola Tinubu said his administration’s reforms aimed to end decades of economic underperformance and deliver jobs and shared prosperity. The World Health Organization says Nigeria currently has no Ebola cases after a patient and her husband were medically evacuated to Switzerland. An ICPC investigator told a federal court that the University of Nigeria and the NYSC disowned certificates submitted by former minister Uche Nnaji. Newspapers also reported concerns over the State Police Bill, labour unions’ demands, and households that sometimes spend as much as 120 per cent of their income on food.
