Poverty Not A Shameful Thing But Nigeria Must Dig Itself Out – Tinubu

President Bola Tinubu has charged members of his cabinet and other top management staff of the civil service to work together to change the narrative of Nigeria.

Gatekeepers News reports that Tinubu noted that this will bring economic prosperity to the country.

The president said this at the closing ceremony of a three-day cabinet retreat which took place in the State House Conference Centre, Abuja.

Tinubu said, “Since we are one family and one nation, and we are in this vehicle together, to change the narrative and bring about economic prosperity of our country; are we ready?”

“Poverty is not a shameful thing but it’s not just acceptable. If you check your history, there’s a trace of poverty in it but we should find a way to dig ourselves out of it,” Tinubu added. “So, it is left for you and me to navigate his ship out of poverty. We have a lot of work ahead of us.”
