Tinubu Says Foreign Trips Are to Bring Jobs and Growth to Nigerians
President Bola Tinubu has explained the reason behind his frequent foreign trips, saying they are all aimed at securing growth, jobs, and prosperity for Nigerians. Tinubu, who just returned from a 10-day trip covering Brazil, Japan, and a brief stop in Los Angeles, stressed that every meeting and handshake abroad is tied to opening doors of opportunity for the country.
According to him, the visit to Japan focused on strengthening relationships that would attract investments in technology, industry, and human capital development. In Brazil, discussions centered on boosting cooperation in trade, agriculture, aviation, and finance, with the goal of building stronger confidence in Nigeria’s economy.
The President said his travels are not about rhetoric but about laying the foundation for a sustainable Nigeria that will outlast the present administration. “Every agreement and partnership is with one aim, to translate into real opportunities for Nigerians,” he noted.
He added that the partnerships being built will position Nigeria for long-term reforms, ensuring a future where growth and prosperity are secured for the people.
It has been reported that Bola Ahmed Tinubu was absent at the commissioning of the Opebi-Mende Link Bridge, which took place on April 8, 2026.
However, Senate President Godswill Akpabio represented the President and carried out the ceremony.
As he commissioned the project, he stated “On behalf of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, I commission these projects.”
