Speaking at a high-level meeting with international investors in Paris, the President highlighted ongoing economic reforms and emphasized the need for policy stability and accountability in driving long-term development.

During the engagement, Taiwo Oyedele, Coordinating Minister of the Economy, disclosed that Nigeria recorded an 11.2 percent growth in Gross Domestic Product (GDP) in dollar terms in 2025. He noted that the performance supports the country’s ambition of achieving a $1 trillion economy by 2030.

Oyedele added that translating reforms into tangible benefits for citizens remains a key short-term priority, while assuring investors that the government would begin publishing financial data on a quarterly basis to enhance transparency.

Also speaking, Patience Oniha, Director General of the Debt Management Office, reassured stakeholders of the government’s commitment to sustainable debt management and prudent financing strategies.

The meeting brought together major global investment firms, including Amundi led by Valerie Baudson, Citibank, as well as BlueCrest, Prudential Global Investment Management, Mesarete Capital, Kirkoswald Capital, Principal Finisterre, and Ninety One.

President Tinubu explained that his administration’s reform agenda is focused on eliminating economic distortions, stabilising macroeconomic indicators, and fostering inclusive growth. He also pledged to deepen transparency in the oil sector and implement comprehensive security strategies, including police decentralisation and efforts to curb terrorist financing.

“The focus remains on policy stability and diligent execution to ensure these strategic shifts translate into concrete benefits for all Nigerians,” the President stated.

Some investors at the meeting expressed optimism about Nigeria’s economic outlook, commending the government’s reform efforts.

Responding to a question on post-2027 plans, Tinubu assured stakeholders of continuity in economic policies, with sustained emphasis on fiscal discipline and transparency.
