Eid-el-Kabir: Don’t lose hope, we’re on path to renewed prosperity, Tinubu tells Nigerians

President Bola Tinubu has urged Nigerians not to lose hope in his administration.

Tinubu said the country was on the path to renewed prosperity, noting that his administration’s economic and governance reforms are yielding positive results.

The president said this in his Eid-el-Kabir message to Nigerian Muslims on Thursday, June 5, 2025.

He stated: “Though the journey has not been easy, and some doubted our direction, the resilience of public and private sector leaders, along with the steadfast support of most Nigerians, is yielding results. I assure you that the toughest days are behind us. We are entering a new era of renewed hope and prosperity that we promised two years ago.

“We may not yet be where we aspire to be, but I urge all Nigerians not to lose hope. Let us hold on to our faith and persevere.

“Our reforms are gaining traction, with key economic indicators now moving in a positive direction. Soon, all will feel the benefits.”

Tinubu noted that the ultimate objective of his administration’s reforms is not just to improve statistics but to transform lives and set Nigeria firmly on the path to sustainable development.

He added: “There are no quick fixes, but we are committed to repairing the foundations of our economy once and for all.

“Our administration will continue acting in the nation’s best interest, ensuring that the gains we are recording translate into improving people’s lives.

“We crafted our Renewed Hope Agenda to bring prosperity to every Nigerian, and we remain steadfast in our pursuit of it.

“As we celebrate today, remember that Eid-el-Kabir enjoins love, compassion, and generosity for all, regardless of faith or background. Let us care for one another’s well-being during this season and always.”

Tinubu, therefore, called for prayers for the victims of the flood disaster in Mokwa, Niger State, and security operatives, “who risk their lives for our safety and security.”

“Let us pray for our leaders at all levels and our country. Let us pray for peace in our tumultuous world of troubles and uncertainties. Let us dedicate this sacred celebration to seeking God’s guidance and blessings for our country,” Tinubu added.
