The All Progressives Congress in Lagos State has praised President Bola Tinubu’s fiscal policies, saying they are rebuilding Nigeria’s economy “brick by brick.” The party highlighted the leadership of the Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS) under Tinubu’s administration, noting its reform‑driven approach as a key factor in the country’s resilience amid global economic disruptions.
According to Mogaji Seye Oladejo, the party’s spokesman, Nigeria’s ability to withstand economic challenges stems from deliberate financial engineering, sound policy, strategic management, and disciplined revenue administration. The transformation of the FIRS is presented as a prime example of how institutional reforms, anchored in competence and integrity, can drive nation‑building.
President Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda prioritises revenue stability as the foundation for national sovereignty. By reforming the tax system and enforcing fiscal discipline across all tiers of government, the administration aims to break the cycle of borrowing and dependency. These reforms have increased revenue, which is being reinvested in critical sectors such as infrastructure, education, healthcare, security, and social investment programmes.
The ultimate goal of the Renewed Hope vision is to create a self‑sufficient nation that generates wealth internally and empowers its citizens. This approach is expected to positively impact Nigeria’s economic development and stability. As the administration continues to implement its fiscal policies, significant economic growth and an improved standard of living for Nigerians are anticipated. The FIRS reforms remain a crucial element of the economic strategy, and their success will be closely monitored by stakeholders. Effective revenue management and resource allocation will be essential to achieving the Renewed Hope Agenda’s objectives, positioning Nigeria for substantial progress in its economic development.
