President Bola Tinubu has reiterated his administration’s commitment to tackling inflation and ensuring economic stability through enhanced fiscal governance, transparency, and public accountability.
Speaking at the opening of a three-day National Conference on Fiscal Governance, Transparency and Accountability, organised by the National Assembly’s Public Accounts Committee in Abuja, President Tinubu—represented by the Minister of State for Finance, Dr. Doris Uzoka-Anite—outlined key measures underway to improve Nigeria’s economic outlook.
He noted that government agencies are being supported to strengthen financial systems, with targeted reforms such as enhanced procurement transparency, digital finance tools expansion, and a stronger Office of the Auditor-General.
The President stressed that addressing structural challenges, especially within food production and supply chains, is crucial to reducing inflation. He also highlighted the need to cut wasteful government spending and urged citizens, civil society organisations, and the media to play active roles in demanding accountability and participating in governance.
“We must work together to build a stable, transparent economy where every Naira counts,” Tinubu said.
