‘Tinubu’s 2025 Budget Will Reposition Nigeria’s Economy For Growth’

Former Minister of State for Transportation, Prince Ademola Adegoroye, has assured Nigerians that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu‘s 2025 budget submitted to the National Assembly will reposition Nigeria’s economy for accelerated growth.

Adegoroye expressed confidence that the 2025 appropriation bill before the National Assembly would address some of the country’s economic and security challenges.

Speaking during the Akure branch of the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) end-of-the-year dinner he sponsored, the former lawmaker also charged legal practitioners to discharge their duties with fear of God and by the profession’s ethics.

It would be recalled that President Tinubu has submitted the 2025 budget proposals of N49.7 trillion, which is significantly higher than the 2024 approved budget of N28.8 trillion.

Adegoroye said the budget proposals, especially the security and infrastructural development, are ambitious and require the government to take bold steps to achieve the set targets.

According to him, President Tinubu’s assurance that the country’s security challenges would be reduced to the barest minimum would allow investors to invest in the nation’s economy.

In his address at the annual dinner, the All Progressives Congress (APC) chieftain assured the legal practitioners of his support for the branch’s activities in the ongoing legal year.

The dinner sponsored by the former lawmaker had judges of the High Court, former chairmen, present executive of the branch, friends, and family members of the former Minister in attendance.

The Executive of the NBA Akure branch named the football team after Prince Adegoroye. Henceforth, the team is named Prince Adegoroye Babes.
