Tinubu Urges Nigerians Abroad to Invest Back Home in Nigeria for National Growth

.President Bola Tinubu has called on Nigerians living abroad to bring their resources and expertise back home to support national development and economic growth. He made the appeal on Thursday during an interactive meeting with members of the Nigerian diaspora at the ongoing Tokyo International Conference on African Development (TICAD9) in Japan.
In a statement released by his Senior Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, Tinubu said Nigeria is on a path of resurgence under his leadership. He described leadership as “thinking and doing,” emphasizing that his administration’s focus is on creating an environment where every Nigerian can experience the benefits of change.
Highlighting key achievements, the president pointed to improvements in passport processing, efforts to curb medical tourism through upgraded healthcare facilities, and broader economic transformation.
“I am glad to hear from you and share that many of our people are returning home. While it is a personal choice for some to stay abroad for economic reasons, the opportunities in Nigeria are strong, don’t stay away,” he said.
Tinubu also stressed that true citizenship goes beyond holding a Nigerian passport; it is reflected in one’s character and dedication to the country’s progress. He cautioned against negative portrayals of Nigeria, noting that such actions hinder investment and slow down development.

Peter Obi Says Politicians Do Not Deserve Pay Rise While Nigerians Struggle

Peter Obi, the Labour Party’s 2023 presidential candidate, has strongly criticized the plan to raise salaries for politicians in Nigeria. The Revenue Mobilisation Allocation and Fiscal Commission (RMAFC) is reportedly pushing for a pay increase for political leaders, but Obi questioned both the timing and the reasoning behind it.
In a statement on his official X handle, the former Anambra governor described the move as insensitive and greedy, especially at a time when ordinary Nigerians are facing worsening economic conditions. He called it a shameless attempt by leaders to enrich themselves while the majority continues to struggle.
Obi argued that political office should be about service, not personal gain. He said the RMAFC’s decision to focus on rewarding politicians instead of addressing the needs of neglected public workers, particularly underpaid and overworked police officers, was provocative and scandalous.
