Describing the second year of Tinubu’s administration as a “season of harvest,” the governor emphasized that Nigerians are beginning to experience the positive impact of earlier tough policy choices.
He pointed to the strengthening of macroeconomic indicators, growth in non-oil revenue, and heightened private sector interest in key areas such as agriculture, gas, and digital technology.
Governor Ododo also praised federal initiatives such as the Presidential Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) Initiative, the Nigerian Education Loan Fund, and infrastructure development programs, saying they reflect a strategic long-term vision for Nigeria’s prosperity.
He reiterated Kogi State’s alignment with the national agenda, especially in the areas of infrastructure, healthcare, education, and youth empowerment.
