Afenifere Secretary Endorses Tinubu’s Economic Reforms as Growth Catalyst

Kole Omololu, the National Organising Secretary of Afenifere, has publicly affirmed that President Bola Tinubu’s economic reforms—most notably the removal of the fuel subsidy—could propel Nigeria toward sustained growth. Omololu highlighted the potential for the subsidy cut to free up fiscal resources, reduce government debt, and encourage private sector participation. He emphasized that the reforms align with broader efforts to streamline public spending and improve macroeconomic stability. The statement comes amid ongoing discussions about Nigeria’s fiscal policy and the need for structural adjustments to support long‑term development. Afenifere’s endorsement signals support from a prominent Yoruba civic organization for the president’s agenda to overhaul key economic levers.
