Eid-el-Fitr: FG Working To improve Economy - Minister 

The Minister of Information and National Orientation, Mohammed Idris, has stated that the Federal Government is working hard to improve the economy of the country, News About Nigeria reports.

In a statement issued by Deputy Director, Press, Federal Ministry of Information and National Orientation, Suleiman Haruna, on Wednesday, he noted that aside from the federal government working to improve the state of the economy, they have been able to achieve a lot in the one year that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has spent in office.

The Minister, who spoke after the Eid-el-Fitr prayer, which marked the end of Ramadan at Kaduna Capital School in Kaduna, also said that the President has been able to stabilise the foreign exchange rate and also reposition agriculture in the country, while improving security.

“Our economy is being repositioned, the foreign exchange market is stabilising, and agriculture is being repositioned so that we will have food security for our people; indeed, the country’s security situation is also improving,” he stated.

He, therefore, urged Nigerians to recover lost values and maintain prayers for peace and the well-being of leaders and country, adding that they should draw from the reasons of Ramadan and ensure Nigerians lived in peace.

He also urged young people to learn from the experiences of their elders and avoid being carried away by global trends.

“Nigeria is a great country; all we need to do is come together and ensure that all the good values are embraced for the benefit of Nigeria.

“For Nigeria to be great again, we must change our ways and continue demonstrating all the values learned during Ramadan,” Idris added.
