APC Chieftain Lauds Tinubu’s Reforms

A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC), in Enugu, Chief Basil Ani, says President Bola Tinubu’s ongoing macroeconomic and deep structural reforms has paved way for inclusive growth and long term poverty reduction.

Ani told the Aproko Republic in Enugu on Tuesday that Nigeria was now more attractive to both domestic and foreign investment.

“President Bola Tinubu’s policies has reopen fiscal space which is addressing deep-rooted constraints that is key to reducing trade barriers, facilitating trade, increasing access to reliable power supply, and improving the business environment.

“The current low social and economic equilibrium has been switched to one marked by a better funded and more effective state that provides efficient public services, goods, and a conducive economic environment for the private sector to flourish and create more quality jobs for Nigerians.”Ani said.

On the amendment of the 1999 Constitution, Ani said that the current constitution review in Nigeria represented a significant opportunity to address long-standing challenges and strengthen the nation’s democratic institutions.

“The success of this process will depend on the extent to which it incorporates the voices and aspirations of all Nigerians and overcomes the procedural and political obstacles that have hindered previous attempts at constitutional reform.

“There’s a push for greater devolution of powers, potentially including the creation of state police and fiscal federalism reforms

“The review seeks to address the autonomy of local governments, which have historically been subject to state government control.

“President Tinubu has always fought to ensure that local governments are autonomous to ensure perfect service delivery to the grassroots,” he said.

Ani added that there was growing awareness and participation in the political process, particularly among young people, who were increasingly engaging in discussions about democracy and holding their leaders accountable.

Reacting to the recent opposition coalition, Ani maintained that APC is not perturbed about the coalition.

“As you know, a multi party system which we practice in Nigeria strengthens democracy.

“The constant tsunamous migration from PDP, APGA and Labour Party into the All Progressives Congress is a testament that APC is rock solid.

“The Honorable Minister of Innovation, Science and Technology, Chief Uche Nnaji’s Leadership has impacted, engaged, empowered encouraged and inspired citizens, stakeholders and stalwarts to join the APC, believing in the renewed Hope agenda of Tinubu,” he stressed.

The APC chieftain consoled with the family of late president Muhammadu Buhari, adding that he played a significant role in the development of Nigeria and was a patriotic soldier and a statesman.

“I wish his family peace in this time of mourning.”he concluded.
