The Emir of Kano, Muhammadu Sanusi II, has said President Bola Tinubu deserves credit for bringing Nigeria’s economy back from the brink, citing improvements in economic growth, inflation, foreign reserves and export diversification.
The former Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) spoke on Tuesday at the Oxford Global Think Tank conference convened by Arunma Oteh. “I’m not a fan of politicians, but we need to give credit to President Tinubu’s administration for bringing us back from the brink,” he said. Sanusi cited the country’s economic growth of 4.48 per cent in the second quarter of 2026, describing it as an improvement over the average performance recorded during the administration of former President Muhammadu Buhari. It’s not as high as it was under the Yar’Adua/Jonathan government, but during the Buhari years, the economy grew by 0.9 percent.
