We live in a wonderful country, but we don’t really appreciate it until we travel to neighbouring nations and other places where having one healthy meal a day is the norm.

“The quantity of high-rise structures I see and the amount of growth on the ground are spectacular when I fly by helicopter.” Thank you, God. Thank you, God. “We are grateful,” the President remarked.

“Whether we like it or not, we are going to leave the country for them,” Buhari warned the elite, urging them to inspire and motivate young people to pursue education.

They must value education for its own sake. Although technology has made it feasible to take shortcuts, real learning cannot be replaced. Encourage the kids to learn, please.

The Federal Government’s Ports Reform Program included the Inland Dry Port Project as a way to decongest the seaports and bring shipping and port services closer to importers and exporters in the hinterland.

The President also officially opened the 10 MW Haske Solar Plant in Kumbotso Local Government, Kano State, which was supported by the Nigeria Sovereign Investment Authority (NSIA).

The facility is an important step in the direction of efforts to offer clean, dependable, and sustainable energy for all Nigerians because it connects industrial clients to an extra power supply.

The 10 MW facility is the first NSIA renewable energy project and the largest finished solar plant in Nigeria.
