Given the expectations of Nigerians and the high hopes the world places on Nigeria, the Tinubu administration will ensure the country’s fortune gets a massive boost in growth and development.

This was the assurance given by Vice President Kashim Shettima when he hosted members of his University of Ibadan Postgraduate Alumni, as well as members of the 1989/1990 set of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) whom he served with in Calabar.

Speaking in his office at the Presidential Villa on Thursday, the Vice President in a statement by his media aide , Stanley Nkwocha noted that the administration’s impact will hugely be its legacy, hence, the commitment of the government  towards improving the livelihood of Nigerians.

Addressing the University of Ibadan Postgraduate Alumni, Vice President Shettima said the transient nature of human life demands that he should recognise that both him and President Tinubu are just first among equals in Nigeria, and are holding a trust on behalf of the Nigerian people.

The VP stated: “I always believe that power is a humbling experience. We spend more of our lives outside power than in power. And most importantly I see it as a gift from God. Asiwaju and I are occupying the prime positions in this country, not because of our intellectual acumen or political sagacity, but purely by the grace of God.

“We do not occupy our positions because of our physical prowess, and certainly not because of our pedigree. There are people of superior pedigree than us. It is a gift from God and a call to serve humanity for a very short span of time and the impact we make in the lives of our people will determine our positions here and in the hereafter. 

“So, to me, it is a humbling experience. It is an opportunity to add value to a great nation like ours, more so that Nigeria’s anticipated demographic bulge suggests we improve the quality of governance in the bid to mitigate any looming demographic disaster.”

Earlier, Prof. Oluwayemisi Arowosoge  who led the University of Ibadan Postgraduate Alumni called on the Tinubu administration to prioritise enhanced agricultural production by promoting an all-year-round agricultural system, with focus on value addition. 

She also encouraged the government to build more earth dams and empower women across the country in a bid to ensure the success of the proposed initiative.

On his part, Barr. Baba Birma who led the Vice President’s set of corps members in Calabar said they were at the Presidential Villa to felicitate with him as well as commend President Tinubu’s leadership strides. 

He said though there are challenges at present, the nation would pull through it and come out better.

He particularly praised the Vice President for his commitment and dedication in some of the tasks executed by his office so far, noting that they were not surprised considering his antecedence. 

The group prayed for God’s guidance and wisdom for the Vice President as he supports President Tinubu in leading Nigeria on the path of prosperity and progress.
