THISDAY also explained that this accolade aims to celebrate Tinubu’s transformative leadership since assuming the presidency in 2023.

The New Diplomat reports that the media outlet commended Tinubu’s administration for tackling some of Nigeria’s most pressing challenges with decisive policy actions, including the removal of fuel subsidies and economic reforms.

THISDAY added that the decision to honour Tinubu was based on his ability to navigate through a turbulent period in Nigeria’s history, with an understanding emphasis on his commitment to economic restructuring, energy reform, and infrastructural development.

The company also praised the President’s determination to engage in what it described as prioritization of long-term national interests over short-term popularity despite criticisms and challenges.

The New Diplomat reports Tinubu, upon assuming office, ended subsidies on fuel.,The President had emphasized that the decision to remove fuel subsidies and dismantle various foreign exchange systems was crucial, as these measures had been taken advantage of by a small group of privileged elites in Nigeria to the disadvantage of the populace.
