President Bola Tinubu has tasked his cabinet with hard work and dedication in order to build a thriving economy that will benefit every Nigerian.
This was mentioned by the President on Monday during his welcome remarks at the State House’s first-ever Federal Executive Council (FEC) meeting.
Ministers and other FEC members were admonished by Tinubu to put in a lot of effort because of the high standards of performance held by Nigerians.

The President also reiterated the policies of his administration, which include strengthening national security for peace and prosperity and restructuring the economy to provide inclusive and sustainable growth.
Tinubu noted that the country would rely on the experience, skill, intellect and networking of those that had been appointed to make headway in the challenging times, and failure would not be explained away under his watch.
“You and I know that expectations are high, and these are tough times. We must work hard and move ourselves to create a buoyant economy that will serve Nigeria. We have an employment rate that is unacceptable, and we are facing threats from climate change.
“In order to turn things around, you have been selected to perform your utmost best. Our policy implementation will reform the economy, ensure inclusive growth, and strengthen security for peace and prosperity. Without security, there can be no investment,” the President said.
The recently inaugurated ministers were present at the inaugural FEC meeting.
The President had on August 21, 2023 sworn in 45 ministers after they were screened and cleared by the Senate.
