President Bola Tinubu hosted a symbolic reunion with Nigeria’s class of 1999 governors at the State House, where the former leaders pressed him to prioritize sustainable economic solutions over short-term palliatives. The ex-governors advocated for the establishment of cottage industries across all 774 local government areas to create jobs and stimulate local economies, arguing that cash handouts like the N5,000 palliative are insufficient to address widespread hardship. Security and economic reforms were highlighted as urgent priorities, with Tinubu expressing openness to their policy suggestions. The meeting underscores mounting grassroots frustration and the need for more impactful, long-term strategies to tackle Nigeria’s economic and security challenges. The gathering also served as a show of unity among political veterans, many of whom were elected during Nigeria’s return to democracy in 1999.
