- Elumelu praises President Tinubu’s bold decisions, stating they encourage the private sector, benefitting Nigerians, especially youth and women
- Elumelu highlights Tinubu’s policies’ positive impact, urges patience, and compares the process to building Rome gradually
Tony Elumelu, chairman of HEIRS Holdings and Transcorp PLC, has stated that the president’s bold actions have ‘encouraged the private sector’.
Elumelu delivered the private sector message to journalists following a private meeting with President Tinubu at the Presidential Villa in Abuja.
In an interview with journalists, Elumelu acknowledged that the president had made good decisions in the best interests of the country, and that the steps taken thus far had encouraged the private sector.
According to him, all of Tinubu’s policies have been in the best interests of all Nigerians, particularly women and youth, and that in the long run, Nigeria will benefit from it all, imploring citizens to be patient with the President.
He said:
The private sector is encouraged by the bold decisions President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has taken and we hope that in the fullness of time, Nigerians will benefit from it because it’s all about the Nigerian people, it’s all about our youths, it’s all about making sure our women are involved and empowered.
It’s all about making sure our youths get jobs and I think Mr. President has this at the back of his mind and I believe, as a private sector person, that the actions and the decisions the President is taking now will help our people in the long run.
He appealed to Nigerians to be more patient with the President and the ongoing process saying, “a bit of patience, you know Rome was not built in a day.”
