President Bola Tinubu has announced his arrival from Brazil after his 12-day tour to South American country and Japan.
Tinubu, in a post shared on his X handle on Wednesday, expressed his delight to back to Nigeria after his engagements in what was described as the two-nation tour.
While recalling his election victory in 2023, the President reiterated his commitment to the restoration of Nigeria’s pride and dignity on the global stage.
He recounted his engagements in Japan, where he attended the ninth Tokyo International Conference on African Development (TICAD9), and Brazil where he oversaw the signing of bi-lateral agreements with advanced partnerships in trade, agriculture, aviation, and finance.
“It feels good to be back home in Nigeria after our recent engagements in Japan and Brazil.
“In 2023, you entrusted me with the responsibility of restoring our pride and dignity on the global stage, and I remain fully committed to that mission. Every handshake, every agreement, and every meeting is guided by one goal: to secure opportunities that translate into growth, jobs, and prosperity for Nigerians.
“In Japan, we deepened ties that will bring new investments in industry, technology, and human capital. In Brazil, we advanced partnerships in trade, agriculture, aviation, and finance, while also engaging with our own business leaders to strengthen confidence in our economy.” He wrote.
Tinubu reiterated Nigeria’s confidence and resilience while noting that the country is gradually obtaining a greater height with his reforms.
“This is the new Nigeria we are building together, a Nigeria built on sustainable reforms that will outlast us rather than one built on rhetoric.
“A Nigeria that is confident abroad, resilient at home, and determined to create value for every citizen, at home and in the diaspora.
“The journey is not without challenges, but with unity of purpose and courage to reform, I firmly believe the best is on the horizon.” He added.
However, there is no announcement of the President’s arrival as at the time of filing this report.
