Nigeria’s economic reform drive won rare global plaudits yesterday, with the World Bank describing the country as an emerging reference point for steady and credible reform leadership, citing sustained policy consistency, tough fiscal choices and growing investor confidence under the current administration.
Also, President Bola Tinubu has vowed that he won’t abandon ongoing economic reforms in Nigeria, declaring that his government remains committed to sustaining the structural changes and will not reverse course despite the initial pains of adjustment.
Charging the World Bank to deepen and fast-track its partnership with Nigeria, the President hinted that Nigeria had already crossed the most difficult phase of reform implementation and was determined to stay the course in the interest of long-term stability and prosperity.
He made the call at the State House, Abuja, while receiving the World Bank delegation led by its Managing Director of Operations, Anna Bjerde.
