Key Points In The President’s Message

The Head of State’s New Year message to the nation delved into crucial issues affecting the welfare of compatriots. Some key points in the president’s message:

“Our economy was able to hold up well; maintaining its 6 per cent growth forecast and curbing the inflation rate at slightly less than 3 per cent.”

“Neither the additional expenditure incurred due to the war against terrorism, nor the disruption of economic activity in the areas under attack could prevent us from achieving our objectives.

“We can do better. We must be better.”

“Obviously our needs are overwhelming, and far from being met.  However, we should welcome what has already been achieved, while planning to do better.”

“Through intense diplomatic activity, we have also been able to rally a wide array of partners to fight Boko Haram.  We should as a nation, express our gratitude to the various friendly countries that are supporting us in this fight.”

“I have always believed that terrorism is a global threat, warranting a global response.”

“The terrorists, who have been driven into a corner, have now resorted to hideous practice of suicide bombings.”

“To deal with the atrocities of Boko Haram, the Nation’s vital forces are mobilized to firmly say NO to terrorism.”

“There are still many challenges on both the economic and security fronts.”

“My main concern remains promoting the quality of life in our society.” I am aware that this hinges on improving our people’s purchasing power.

“Despite the current economic hardship I have instructed the government to implement two key measures:

- review pump prices of fuel downward; and

- Review upwards, the amount of family allowances paid to workers. These measures will take effect on 1st January 2016.

“We will host the Women’s AFCON in 2016 and the Men’s AFCON in 2019. We need appropriate infrastructure.”

“Our economic growth should be more robust, more sustainable, generating more jobs for all, particularly our youth”.

“The major challenge for the country in 2016 will be to create conditions conducive to real industrialization.”

“I have instructed the government to accelerate the creation of conditions necessary for industrialization.”

“The task is huge, and the projects are numerous. But I firmly believe that we can take a great leap forward. Through the determination and patriotic commitment of each and every one, I am convinced that we can meet the challenge in the interests of all.”
