Having hit the ground running after his election as the 16th president of the federal republic of Nigeria, Bola Tinubu with a series of very bold and unprecedented reform decisions, has gone ahead to seize the opportunity offered by the month of September 2023, to make a grand entry into the global stage.
The President spoke boldly for the entire African continent, tracing the history of the post-World War II global system, starting with a Marshall Plan that helped redeem Europe. Asking for a 21st century equivalent for that Plan, President Tinubu added,"We realize that underlying conditions and causes of the economic challenges facing Africa today are significantly different from those of post war Europe. We are not asking for identical programs and actions.
President Tinubu has also assembled a cabinet with an impressive representation of young people and women, while also creating new Ministries and ministerial portfolios to reflect the pressing realities of the 21st century, as well as the priorities of our administration. The President is being supported in his many onerous assignments by a very energetic and committed Cabinet. In the last few days, I joined some of my colleagues for events at the UN General Assembly, and can testify to the remarkable levels of determination within the cabinet, to solve Nigeria's problems with the support and cooperation of the global community.
