My fellow Nigerians, Today, I address you with a sense of responsibility, as we navigate through these times. The protests, which turned violent in some parts of our nation, have caused unimaginable pain and loss, particularly to the families of those who have tragically lost their lives. Our nation’s resources are stretched thin as we rebuild what has been destroyed. As your President, I am committed to ensuring public order and protecting the lives and property of every Nigerian. We must come together, suspending further protests, and embrace dialogue for the sake of our nation’s unity and progress. Despite the challenges, our government is making significant strides. We have doubled government revenues by blocking leakages and introducing automation, reduced debt service, and launched major infrastructure projects. Initiatives like the Compressed Natural Gas Initiative, the MSME Hubs, and the Renewed Hope City and Estate projects aim to improve the quality of life for all Nigerians. To drive down the cost of food and medicines, I have ordered the suspension of duties on critical food items and medical supplies for the next six months, in the first instance, while I can also confirm to you that billions of Naira worth of tractors and planting equipment purchased from US, Brazil and Belarus, are already on the way to our country. We have also shown our commitment to the youth with programs like the student loan scheme and the Digital and Creative Enterprises initiative, which will create millions of jobs. Let us choose hope over fear, unity over division, and progress over stagnation. Together, we can build a brighter future for ourselves and generations to come. Forward Ever, Backward Never! Thank you for your attention, and may God bless our great nation

@officialABAT When Good luck Jonathan removed fuel subsidy in 2012 and fuel price hiked to N147 per litre, Nigerians including president Tinubu protested, He listened to them and reversed the price of fuel to N87 per litre.

@Bod_repuplic @officialABAT GEJ Min wage = 18k Bag of rice = 7k Min wage in dollars = $112.5 BUHARI Min wage = 30k Bag of rice = 34k Min wage in dollars = $75 TINUBU Min wage = 70k Bag of rice = 80k Min wage in dollars = $43. GEJ is better than them who criticized him. Bunch of failures.

Fuel is the crucial component of this country, But if they have better plans of refining it in-house , we will have a better value for the Fuel, removing subsidies will only bring down the price but not bring in the real resources that will later bring in revenue not only to the country but to the Value of our Currency 💵! Simple

@Bod_repuplic @officialABAT Just that GEJ is a weak president... If he done tear gas & shoot all this weyrey then, they we not have access to power

@Bod_repuplic @officialABAT Till thy kingdom comes Jonathan is the best president Nigeria has ever had

@Bod_repuplic @officialABAT With due respect to former president Good luck, he agreed to reverse the pump price due to fear and selfish interest of winning the second term bid.

@Bod_repuplic @officialABAT Well the truth be told Is that the North never like him,because he is not a Muslim.. We Nigeria will keep on suffering till we keep religious and tribalism aside.

@Bod_repuplic @officialABAT That's true and Tinubu has to do the same. There's no amount of speech he will give that will make sence if he doesn't do the right things

@Bod_repuplic @officialABAT How much was exchange rate right now

@Bod_repuplic @officialABAT This man was indeed a good president,but we were not still satisfied then... things were very cheap most especially food..but see the situation of the country now...make God have mercy on us o

@Bod_repuplic @officialABAT This is what the protest of today is all about. Put back the subsidy but if it's to stand, fuel shouldn't be more than N300-N350.

@Bod_repuplic @officialABAT That's no longer possible. Our economy has become so precarious that it can no longer support subsidies.

@Bod_repuplic @officialABAT We all know that Pres. Tinubu is facing the consequences of what he did back in time... But let us still give room for progress... Having hope that things can improve in his tenure.

@Bod_repuplic @officialABAT GEJ reversed because he bowed to short term pressure without putting the long term effect into consideration

@Bod_repuplic @officialABAT E reach him turn e carry stone put for chest

@Bod_repuplic @officialABAT How much was exchange rate back then?

@Bod_repuplic @officialABAT No be all of una celebrities and some public figures lead the protest then? Una do till that man no achieve his aim You just keep quiet make I no hate you ohh

@Bod_repuplic @officialABAT Tribalism Na it go kpai this country finally. The Yorubas supporting this hunger just because he's a Yoruba man. The Hausa seriously protesting because the president is not an Hausa man. The Igbos are so happy about the present condition of the country.

@Bod_repuplic @officialABAT PGEJ is my hero all the time, but he reverse it because he wants 2015 election come in his favor if he had won 2015 election subsidy would have gone since

@Bod_repuplic @officialABAT Pls Explain to Him seems Una papa no sabbi how this things is Done ✅ DUMb Being bat

@Bod_repuplic @officialABAT It is true but do this president have advisers because I don’t understand

@Bod_repuplic @officialABAT A man of peace🙏🏾

@Bod_repuplic @officialABAT After he listened what later became the adverse effects? Borrowing upon borrowing and borrowing. Jonathan didn't inherit debt from Obj but he ended up with 10b Dollars debt. His listen was a mistake & weakness not progressive. Such shouldn't repeat itself. Subsidy is gone

@Bod_repuplic @officialABAT The Gentleman 👌

@Bod_repuplic @officialABAT There's an adage in my culture, that until you carry a keg of wine and a keg of water, you wouldn't know which is heavier. Like 7up advert was aptly captured, "the difference is clear".

@Bod_repuplic @officialABAT Jonathan wasn't borrowing to fund fuel subsidy, the nation was generating excess revenue from crude oil. Today we've found ourselves in a situation where we have to borrow to subsidise fuel.

@Bod_repuplic @officialABAT He's Hero of decmocracy!

@Bod_repuplic @officialABAT He is not my favourite person but I RESPECT HIM FOR HIS HUMILITY AND ABILITY TO THINK OF OTHERS BEFORE HIMSELF. He tasted power but was never poisoned with LUST FOR POWER. He was a Democrat in his deeds.

@Bod_repuplic @officialABAT Dis country don spoil

@Bod_repuplic @officialABAT It will never be well with people that voted GEJ out…

@Bod_repuplic i think this was his reply then

@Bod_repuplic @officialABAT Sheeeey their Northern allies are turning on them now. Hunger go reach everywhere. Consequences of wrong decisions is not questionable

@Bod_repuplic @officialABAT Hw much was minimum wage back then

@Bod_repuplic @officialABAT Long live GEJ sir

@Bod_repuplic @officialABAT We miss you Goodluck Jonathan I wish Goodluck Jonathan will come back to be our president in nigeria forever

@Bod_repuplic @officialABAT Perfect Example! Tinubu's speech was an uninspiring one. It show that Tinubu doesn't care if people are dying. What a shame. The speech dashed our hope. Let us meet at the polls.

@Bod_repuplic @officialABAT That time is the best time to remove fuel subsidy, should we continue to pay subsidy, ọmọ that one na second slavery.
