It was the Nigerian leader’s second day at work following his two-week vacation abroad.
Olasupo Olusi, the chief executive officer (CEO) of the Bank of Industry (BoI); and Uzoma Nwagba, CreditCorp boss, were also in the meeting on Tuesday, October 22.
Although details of the meeting were not immediately disclosed, TheTalk.NG understands that it is connected with the lingering economic hardship in West Africa’s largest economy.
Frustrated with growing economic hardships, Nigerians staged nationwide protests against the crisis in August and October.
Amid the disturbing situation, officials within the presidency insisted that the current administration is trying to fix the problems.
On Tuesday, October 22, Dada Olusegun, the special assistant to President Tinubu on social media, acknowledged that it has been a challenging year so far. Olusegun, however, added that “so much progress has been made in the bid to reposition the economy for a sustainable future.”
The presidential aide stated that the effects of fuel subsidy removal in May 2023 and other presidential reforms have been promising.
