I was not elected to give excuses —Tinubu

Nigeria’s President Bola Tinubu says he was not elected by Nigerians to give excuses but to work hard to ensure the country is taken out of poverty and positioned for economic growth. Ripples Nigeria reports.

President Tinubu made the assertion in a statement on Thursday presented on his behalf by his spokesman, Ajuri Ngelale, when he hosted a 62-person delegation from Rivers State, at the State House, Abuja.NYSC Portal
