SAT, JAN 13 2024-theGBJournal|President Bola Tinubu reassured on Friday that the entire financial system of the country would be re-engineered for inclusivity, effectiveness, and efficiency.
The President gave the assurance while receiving members of the Progressive Governors Forum (PGF) at the State House in Abuja.
“We have no reason to be poor. Looking back on where we are coming from, where we have been, why we are facing infrastructural decay, a lack of quality and comprehensive education, as well as a lack of health facilities. We are not a cursed country, but blessed,’’ the President said.
He noted that that the country ”is too blessed with human, natural, and material resources” to be struggling with a dearth of quality infrastructure, quality education, and world-class health facilities.
Meanwhile, the President implored governors elected on the platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC) to design and implement policies that prioritize all Nigerians and to always consider the national interest above political affiliations.
He told the Governors that development policies would only find full relevance in people’s lives when there is inclusivity, ownership, and sustainability.
According to the President, one of the biggest challenges the nation faces was divisiveness.
He urged the governing party to work towards healing and unifying the country by ensuring a collective national vision, and channelling energy and resources into nation-building.
“You can convert people. You can appeal to people to come to your side,’’ he stated.
