Speaking at the Federal Executive Council meeting in Abuja after swearing in two new ministers, the President highlighted the success of Nigeria’s $2.3 billion Eurobond, oversubscribed by 400%, as proof of investor trust and progress under the Renewed Hope Agenda.

On national security, President Tinubu urged Nigerians to remain united and resilient, pledging that his administration will defeat terrorism and ensure peace across all regions. He also called for closer cooperation with global partners in addressing security threats and directed ministers to maintain consistent, coordinated communication to sustain public trust.

Finance Minister Wale Edun reported that Nigeria’s economy grew by 4.23% in the second quarter of 2025, inflation eased to 18.02%, foreign reserves rose to $43 billion, and trade surplus reached N7.4 trillion. He said these gains reflect growing productivity and investor confidence, reaffirming the government’s vision to achieve a $1 trillion economy by 2030 through continued reforms and investment in innovation, infrastructure, and human capital.
