You are a leader with “sight and vision”…

Senate President, Godswill Akpabio, has applauded President Bola Ahmed Tinubu as a leader with “sight and vision”.

Speaking at the 2026 National Convention of the All Progressives Congress (APC) on Friday evening, Akpabio said what attracts everyone to the party is the good governance provided by the Tinubu administration.

Akpabio told the party president and delegates gathered at Eagle Square in Abuja: “What attracts all of us to the APC today is good governance.

“From the time you abolished fuel subsidies, to the harmonization of multiple exchange rates, then to your reforms in the education sector, you have led to the poor in the village now being able to get a loan to attend tertiary education.

“You brought about the agricultural revolution. You started the railways. Now people can travel from Lagos all the way to Ibadan. Now people can travel all the way to Ajaokuta. I took a ride along the coastal road we contemplated 50 years ago in the Niger Delta region. May God bless you, bless your work and the wisdom he has given you.

“In you, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, from what you have done transforming Lagos, transforming many states of the Federation, building men across, you are a man who has sight and also has vision and you translate that to Nigeria. Mr President, Nigerians are yet to see the best of you.

“Despite the difficult economy you have encountered, you are changing things. You have brought tax reforms. You have brought dignity to Nigeria. The recent visit to the UK, after 37 years, clearly showed that Nigeria has now arrived on the world stage.

“And as for our party members, from about 18 states of the Federation, we now have 32 governors and the number is growing. By election day, we could have 36 out of 36.”

Akpabio, who is the Speaker of the National Assembly, assured President Tinubu of the continued support and cooperation of the legislature and assured Nigerians that the current menace of insecurity will soon be a thing of the past.

“And for those of us in the legislature, Mr President, be assured of our continued support and cooperation because when the house is in order, when the National Assembly is stable, when everyone is aligned with your agenda for renewed hope, then indeed Nigeria, surely, will see progress.

“For the insecurity you see today, I want to assure you that the bull you see today, the terrorists you see today, with the ingenuity of our president and the support and prayers of all Nigerians, you will soon no longer see them. May God bring stability to Nigeria. May God grant us peace. May God grant peace to the APC family,” Akpabio said.
