President Bola Tinubu said Nigeria will be a one trillion dollar economy in a few years going by the preparation of his administration.
The President, though, commended the Security chiefs and heads of intelligence agencies in the country for the improved security situation and charged them to ensure the myriad of security threats are wholly eliminated to pave the way for a robust economy.
Tinubu, who stated this at the Presidential security briefing at the State House yesterday, said, “While good progress is being made with eliminating some security threats across multiple theatres, success will ultimately be defined by a final conclusion to the multi-dimensional menace.
