The First Lady of Nigeria, Senator Oluremi Tinubu, has expressed optimism in the ongoing reforms and economic rebound, declaring that by 2026, other countries would be borrowing from Nigeria.

Tinubu made a disclosure at Ile-Ife, Osun State, shortly after she was installed as Yeye Asiwaju Gbogbo Ile Oodu’a on Sunday, a ceremony held at the Palace Square to mark the 10th coronation anniversary of Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi on the throne of his forebears.

She stressed that ongoing reforms would soon reposition Nigeria as a financial pillar in the region, boasting that President Bola Tinubu’s government will show critics and leaders around the world how best to govern.

According to her, “Nigeria’s joy has come, those wondering how we want to do it, we will show them how things are being done.

“By 2026, Nigeria will be in prosperity, and other countries will come and borrow money from us. It is important to say it here at the source of the Yoruba cradle today, that during this present administration led by President Bola Tinubu, they will wonder how he was able to achieve such a milestone.”
