The Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister of the Economy, Wale Edun, has announced that President Bola Tinubu’s economic policies have now reached the result-delivery stage.
The minister made this known on Thursday evening at an interactive session with the Senate Committee on Finance at the National Assembly Complex, Abuja.
He further expressed appreciation for Nigerians’ endurance with the side effects of the economic reforms, which, according to him, have begun to yield results.
According to Edun, the initial challenges from the reforms are behind Nigerians, with positive indicators for better days now emerging.
He stated, “The two critical reforms on market-based pricing of Premium Motor Spirit and foreign exchange are now at the stage of results delivery and, by extension, the viability of the nation’s economy through the restoration of fiscal health.”
“These two pillars of the economic reforms that have taken positive shape now portend additional revenue for the government, recovery of NNPCL’s finances, and a strong basis for economic growth in terms of attracting investment and creating jobs. I think we need to commend Nigerians for staying the course to this stage of getting benefits.”
