President Bola Tinubu asserts his claim to a place in the Guinness World Records for the transformative reforms he has spearheaded since assuming office on May 29, 2023. Reflecting on his tenure as the governor of Lagos State from 1999 to 2007, Tinubu highlights his pivotal role in propelling the state from obscurity to the fifth-largest economy on the African continent. Emphasizing his extensive experience in the private sector, having been trained by Deloitte and serving as the treasurer of Exxon Mobil, he positions his governance of Lagos as a testament to his capabilities, setting the stage for his presidential ambitions.
Speaking at the 10th German-Nigerian Business Forum in Berlin, Germany, Tinubu addresses those wary of potential challenges, drawing attention to his corporate background and governance acumen. He proudly underscores Lagos State’s remarkable economic ascent under his leadership, stating that this accomplishment serves as the foundation for his bid for the presidency. Tinubu expresses his commitment to reforms from the outset of his presidency, citing the mandate he received from the Nigerian people for transformative change.
In a bold declaration, Tinubu asserts, “If you didn’t mention me in the Guinness Book of Records, I’d thrive to find a way to insert myself because I did it without expectation.” He attributes his achievements to the comprehensive reforms initiated since the beginning of his presidency, aligning with the mandate he outlined in his inaugural speech. Tinubu’s remarks follow the signing of two significant agreements between Nigerian and German companies in Berlin on Tuesday, further emphasizing the importance of international collaboration and economic partnerships.
