President Bola Tinubu’s performance so far has shown promising signs of economic growth and stability. In just two years, he’s added $67 billion to Nigeria’s GDP, growing the economy from ₦269.29 trillion to ₦372.8 trillion.
Nigeria has also maintained a trade surplus for ten consecutive quarters, with exports outpacing imports.
Some notable achievements include:
Economic Growth: GDP growth stood at 3.40% in 2024 and 3.87% in 2025, with projections of 4.4% growth for 2026.
Trade Surplus: Nigeria recorded a trade surplus of $10.83 billion in the first nine months of 2025.
Foreign Reserves: Surpassed $50 billion, reaching a 13-year high of $50.45 billion as of February 2026.
Inflation: Food inflation dropped to 8.89%, its lowest in 128 months.
Oil Production: Nigeria became West Africa’s largest fuel exporter and overshot its OPEC quota.
However, challenges persist, including food inflation and poverty. The World Bank projects poverty levels to reach 61% in 2025 and 62% in 2026, affecting approximately 139 million Nigerians.
Overall, President Tinubu’s reforms have shown positive results, but addressing the country’s structural issues and social challenges remains crucial.
