At the inaugural meeting of the Federal Executive Council (FEC) on Monday, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu charged
ministers to look beyond titles and offices and stay focused on the day-to-day task of their individual and collective
contributions to the transformation of the economy for the upliftment of Nigerian households.
Held at the Council Chambers of the State House in Abuja, the President told the new ministers that the hopes and
aspirations of 200 million fellow Nigerians rested on their daily actions and that he will relentlessly provide the
focused leadership required to stop failure in its tracks so that sustainable progress can be achieved.
"We shall evolve a homegrown re-engineering of our finances, a reimagined stewardship of our resources, and we
will let the economy work for the people of this country. There are so many things we can and will do. Yes, some
cynics will say it is impossible. But in your own dictionary of service, everything is possible, and it must be possible,"
the President exclaimed.
Emphasizing that anyone thinking that appointments are fixed term appointments are mistaken, the President
expressed confidence that the carefully selected cabinet members know that his government is a new one with a
new approach and a new mandate to deliver for Nigeria without any lamentation or excuses.
"We have the talent. We have the level of intellectual capacity required to turn this country around. We will make
sure that the country is on the right path to succeed on behalf of more than 200 million Nigerians who rely on us,"
the President affirmed.
President Tinubu noted that the country would rely on the experience, skill, intellect, and networking of those who
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.
Humbled by the mandate God had given to him, the President reminded his cabinet that he is only one man and that
their innovative thinking to solve problems will shape his leadership as a President who listens.
"It is in your hands now. I am ready to listen and to cooperate. I am ready even to be corrected. Only God is perfect.
You have been asked to fetch water from a dry well. The challenges are great, but we will deliver for Nigerians. I am
happy to be the captain of this vehicle."
"It is a great commitment that you have made to the country. Since your inauguration as a minister, you have
become a servant for the people, serving all of the people, all of the time," President Tinubu concluded.
