President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has declared that Nigeria has no fear of what United States President Donald Trump is doing.
He made the assertion while disclosing that at the moment, Nigeria's economy is not borrowing a dime from local banks.
This, he said, was an indication that the country is stable.
According to him, the country's revenue inflow has been consistent, hence, there is no fear of United States of America President Donald Trump's tariff policy.
In a viral video, Tinubu on Monday said this when he received members of The Buhari Organisation (TBO), led by Tanko Almakura, former Nasarawa governor.
He emphasised that the country achieved its revenue target for the whole year in August without local borrowing.
Tinubu noted that the country’s economy is on the right path to prosperity.
"The fear of where we are going? We know the direction that we should go; we are going higher.
"Today, I'm standing before you, and I can brag that Nigeria is not borrowing a dime from a local bank.
“We have met our revenue target for the whole year; we met it in August, non-oil. If the non-oil revenue is doing well, then we have no fear of whatever Trump is doing."
NATIONAL POST reports that although the current government insists the economy is doing well, many believe it is yet to reflect on the life of an average citizen, with cost of living still on the high level.
