President Tinubu speaking to Nigerians in Brazil on Wednesday, pledged to fast-track Nigeria’s development through technology and food security, aligning with the success models of emerging economies like Brazil.
He reiterated his administration’s commitment to transformation through innovation, reform, and inclusive growth.
“We must bring Nigeria to the forefront of Africa’s progress, driven by technology, food sovereignty, and the courage to change our destiny,” presidential spokesman, Bayo Onanuga, quoted Tinubu in a statement as saying.
Tinubu who described his visit to Brazil as a strategic move to deepen bilateral ties and draw inspiration from the impressive development trajectory of the South American country, said both nations once shared similar economic starting points.
“Once upon a time, Nigeria and Brazil stood on the same level. Look at Brazil today, its technology, its food systems. We must ask ourselves: what do they have that we don’t?
“We have the brains, the energy, and the youth. We have everything we need. Now, we must act.”
