Tinubu to Renewed Hope Ambassadors: I won’t let Nigerians down

President Bola Tinubu on Thursday in Abuja told the Renewed Hope Ambassadors that he would not let Nigerians down.

He reaffirmed his commitment to building a stable, peaceful, and prosperous nation, saying the well-being of Nigerians remains his top priority.

Tinubu stated that the political and economic structures that have long undermined Nigerians’ prosperity are being steadily replaced through the realignment of the economy to enable full participation.

Receiving a delegation of the Renewed Hope Ambassadors led by Governor Hope Uzodimma of Imo State at the State House, he pledged to sustain reforms aimed at creating more opportunities for poor and vulnerable citizens.

Vice President Kashim Shettima and the National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Prof. Nentawe Goshwe Yilwatda, also attended the event alongside many governors: Mai Mala Buni (Yobe), Mohammed Inuwa (Gombe), Nasir Idris (Kebbi), Francis Nwifuru (Ebonyi), Sheriff Oborevwori (Delta), Usman Ododo (Kogi), Abiodun Oyebanji (Ekiti), Hyacinth Alia (Benue), Agbu Kefas (Taraba), Monday Okpebholo (Edo), and Uba Sani (Kaduna), who also serves as the Deputy Director-General of the Renewed Hope Ambassadors.

A host of former governors, including Aminu Bello Masari (Katsina), Ifeanyi Okowa (Delta), and Tanko Almakura (Nasarawa), attended, as well as former Senate President, Anyim Pius Anyim; National Secretary of the APC, Senator Ajibola Bashiru; zonal coordinators of the Renewed Hope Ambassadors; directors; and Special Adviser to the President on Political Matters, Ibrahim Masari.

President Tinubu emphasised that the more citizens participate in shaping their lives and future, the better society will be for generations to come.

He urged the Renewed Hope Ambassadors to continue sensitising and mobilising citizens, especially at the grassroots, on the government’s efforts to improve their livelihoods through economic reforms.

“You represent the conscience of a nation that wants to break the shackles of poverty and hopelessness,” he said.

He assured that the administration will uphold the tenets of democracy, including the rule of law, the separation of powers and the rights of all citizens.

Tinubu said: “We cannot submit to disobedience of a lawful order of the court; we must embrace the judiciary, whether it favours us or not. 

“We submit to this principle of democracy, separation of powers, and understanding of the dynamics of it, and the nationhood that Nigeria is, that we must build one country.  

“That’s what Renewed Hope is all about. 

“You must give them that hope.

“There’s no other path for us to attain national greatness other than to build one common vision for the progress and prosperity of our people. 

“That is what we must do.”

President Tinubu reiterated that his government is guided by a clear vision to foster inclusive growth, create opportunities for youth, and ensure that every Nigerian, regardless of background or region, has a stake in the country’s future.

He encouraged citizens not to be discouraged by the misinformation championed by the opposition elements in the country.

He said the great accomplishments witnessed in modern times were achieved through visionary leadership, assuring that Nigeria is in safe hands.

To the opposition, he said: “They want to scare me off? 

“It’s a lie. 

“I’ve been through this path before. 

“And if I have to come back over and over and over again, I’ll do the same thing. 

“There is no better place than your own country. 

“And no one can build it except you.
