Bola Tinubu has lamented that the presence of corruption and insecurity has posed existential threats to Nigeria.
Tinubu made this known on Wednesday when he presented his second budget estimate of N47.9 trillion before the joint session of the National Assembly consisting of the Senate and House of Representatives.
He noted that Nigeria suffers from poor decision made by past leaders, but added that this is the time for action and not lamentations.
Tinubu said,”Our nation faces existential threats from corruption and insecurity and suffers from many past poor choices.

“These challenges are surmountable when we work collaboratively to overcome them. We must rewrite the narrative of this nation together, with every leader, institution, and citizen playing their part.
“The time for lamentation is over. This is a time to act. A time to support and promote greater investment in the private sector. A time for our civil servants to faithfully execute our policies and programmes. It is a time for every Nigerian to look hopefully towards a brighter future because a new day has dawned for us as a nation.
“As your President, I remain committed and resolute to continue to lead the charge. This 2025 budget proposal lays the foundation for peace, prosperity, and much needed hope. It is the plan through which a Nigeria where every citizen can dream, work, and thrive in safety can be achieved,” he added.
