To me, the actual big deal is that he could do all this without the usual grounding of the country from the big boys of the industry benefiting from all this.

When Bloomberg praised Tinubu yesterday, they did not do that because he removed all these things but they specifically mentioned that he was able to maintain stability and peace after removal, something that usually lead to chaos whenever any government try to do that since 2003.

I think he was able to achieve this because he got lot of loyalists in all corners of society. From the street, business world, Labour world, trenches, politics, international community, and etc.

No president can get away with removing fuel subsidy & unifying exchange rate in 2 weeks without sparking massive protest that would have grounded the economy. Tinubu mandate is divine.

I think taking these important decisions before appointing ministers is very smart.

If he had Ministers in place, he would have had to consult them, and the Ministers would also need time to consult senior civil servants within their ministeries.

While the so-called consultations are going on, the powerful business and political cabals will have thrown big money at the Ministers to try and frustrate any policy change.

Right now, the cabals have only a stubborn president to contend with and dem no born them to say pim.

Mr Tinubu is a political genius.

Sons and daughters of Hate who never see anything good in things and people will still enter this thread to cry.

We have a President now. Nigeria is becoming the Giant it's known to be.

But we didn’t have a President before and yet you call those that revolted against the man and party, that delivered the incompetent failure that was PMB, sons and daughters of hate

Okay oh

You have to give PBAT credit tbh. He’s leveraging his strengths and making firm decisions. Godspeed to him and Nigeria

But makes you wonder how PMB sat in the Villa for 8 full years and only devastated virtually everything business and economy in the country💀

Please all these positive news how does it affect common man?
Basic needs are very costly in the market and unaffordable. There should be law or policy that will regulate price of things in the market.

It doesn't take genius to sweep a room and mop the floor.

Buhari was just inept when it came to the economy

In real. when you factor in the devaluation in naira by 30% today is that a real gain?
