The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Dr. Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, has assured Nigerians of a more stable and prosperous economy by next Christmas, citing the bold economic reforms of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s administration.
In a statement signed by his Chief Press Secretary, Edwin Olofu, Ganduje extended warm Christmas greetings to Christians across the country and urged Nigerians to remain patient and hopeful. He acknowledged the discomfort many have experienced due to ongoing economic reforms but emphasized that positive results are beginning to emerge.
Dr. Ganduje highlighted that the administration’s reforms, though challenging, are laying the foundation for a stronger economy.
“By next year’s Christmas, the economy will have stabilized and improved significantly,” Ganduje assured.
He said the government’s efforts in securing the country have also started yielding results, with significant reductions in cases of banditry and kidnapping. These strides, he said, demonstrate the administration’s commitment to creating a secure and conducive environment for economic growth.
As the nation continues to navigate developmental challenges, the APC Chairman reaffirmed the party’s dedication to promoting policies and programs that foster sustainable growth, security, and improved welfare for all citizens.
“The APC leadership remains steadfast in its resolve to bring about a brighter future for Nigerians through initiatives that address both immediate and long-term needs,” he stated.
Ganduje used the festive season to call on Nigerians to reflect on the values of love, peace, and unity as exemplified by the teachings of Jesus Christ. He encouraged citizens to embrace selflessness, generosity, and care for the less privileged, emphasizing that these virtues are essential for national cohesion.
“This season reminds us of the need to foster harmony and strengthen our collective resolve to build a prosperous and united nation,” he added.
Dr. Ganduje also urged Nigerians to use the Christmas period to pray for continued peace, stability, and prosperity in the country, as well as for the success of leaders at all levels of government.
He concluded his message by wishing Nigerians a Merry Christmas and a prosperous New Year, expressing confidence that the coming year would bring significant progress for the nation.
This message of hope and reassurance comes as Nigerians look forward to a more stable and thriving economy in 2025, with expectations of further reductions in insecurity and advancements in national development.
