President Bola Tinubu has assured Nigerians that ongoing reforms under his administration will continue to strengthen security, stabilize the economy, and foster national prosperity.

In his Eid-el-Kabir message released Tuesday, Tinubu acknowledged persistent security challenges but highlighted recent successes, including the elimination of a wanted ISIS leader.

“Despite the best efforts of our security agencies, terrorists and bandits still attack some communities. I assure you: you are neither abandoned nor forgotten. We will ultimately defeat all the forces of evil,” he said.

The president described Eid-el-Kabir as a festival of sacrifice, compassion, and unity, urging Muslims to pray for peace and national cohesion. He emphasized that Nigeria is on a path of “reconstruction and renewal” through difficult but necessary reforms.

Tinubu expressed satisfaction that sacrifices made by citizens over the past three years are yielding results, citing a more stable economy and growing investor confidence.

“The walk through the dark tunnel is over, and the light is here,” he declared.

He reaffirmed his administration’s commitment to investing in security, infrastructure, agriculture, and human capital development, while calling on Nigerians to support the less privileged and strengthen national unity.

Tinubu concluded by wishing Nigerians a peaceful and blessed Eid-el-Kabir celebration.
