Vice President Kashim Shettima has commended President Bola Tinubu for his decisive leadership, asserting that history will remember him as the leader who confronted Nigeria’s most pressing challenges.

Speaking at a special Iftar in honor of Tinubu’s birthday at the Presidential Villa in Abuja, Shettima praised the president for addressing issues that past administrations avoided.

“These were the thorny issues that many before him sidestepped. But Asiwaju did not sidestep history; he came to rewrite it,” he said.

Shettima highlighted Tinubu’s courage in tackling critical national problems, including fraudulent fuel subsidies, an unstable foreign exchange market, and the suppression of local government autonomy.

“Thanks to his boldness, future presidents of Nigeria will not have to wrestle with the same ghosts that haunted past administrations,” he added.
