President Bola Tinubu asserts that his economic reforms as Lagos state governor, propelling him to the presidency, warrant a spot in the Guinness Book of Records.

Tinubu shares his achievements at the 10th German-Nigerian Business Forum, emphasizing his commitment to recognition. 

The President, citing a successful career in the private sector and transformative governance in Lagos, vows to secure his place in history, alluding to Nigeria’s vote for his reform-driven presidency. 

Tinubu’s remarks coincide with pivotal agreements between Nigerian and German companies, marking significant strides in gas supply and renewable energy projects.

“I governed Lagos for eight consecutive years. Today, I can proudly beat my chest that Lagos state is on the horizon and the fifth-largest economy in Africa, rising from zero. This is the track record that led me to the presidency.

“Nigeria voted for me for reforms and from day one of my inauguration, I started the reform. To me, if you didn’t mention me in the Guinness Book of Records, I’d thrive to find a way to insert myself because I did it without expectation,” he said on a lighter note.

The second agreement between Union Bank of Nigeria and DWS Group, will see $500 million worth of renewable energy projects invested in Nigeria.
