Nigeria must become nation of producers, not just consumers — Tinubu



President Bola Tinubu has advised that Nigeria should be a nation of producers rather than just being consumers.

He stated this in his Independence Day address to Nigerians on Wednesday, saying that it was time for the country to shift from being a consuming nation to a producing one.

“Let us be a nation of producers, not just consumers. Let us farm our land and build factories to process our produce. Let us patronise Made-in-Nigeria goods. I say Nigeria first,” Tinubu declared.

The president explained that reforms like removing fuel subsidies and unifying foreign exchange rates were tough but necessary to reset the economy.

“We chose the path of reform. We chose the path of tomorrow over the comfort of today,” he said.

Tinubu added that the results are beginning to show, noting that Nigeria recorded a 4.23% GDP growth in Q2 2025 while inflation dropped to its lowest in three years.

“The worst is over, I say. Yesterday’s pains are giving way to relief,” he assured citizens.

He also urged Nigerians to join hands in building a self-reliant nation.

Tinubu added, “The accurate measure of our success will not be in economic statistics alone, but in the food on our families’ tables, the quality of education our children receive, the electricity in our homes, and the security in our communities.”
