Prof. Iyabo Obasanjo, the daughter of former President Olusegun Obasanjo, has expressed her admiration for President Bola Tinubu's economic reforms, stating that they have played a significant role in stabilizing the Nigerian economy and enhancing the purchasing power of its citizens. During a recent media event, she highlighted the importance of Tinubu's initiative to construct the Lagos-Calabar Coastal road, describing it as a key project that will promote economic activities and ease congestion on the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway.

Moreover, Prof. Obasanjo made it clear that her ambitions to run for governor of Ogun State in 2027 are serious and backed by her dedication and commitment to the role. She emphasized that her candidacy is not merely for show, nor is she aiming to create a path for another candidate. Instead, she has every intention of succeeding in the election, demonstrating her readiness to take on the responsibilities that come with the position.

This announcement and praise for the current government's economic policies come at a critical time for Nigeria, as many citizens are closely watching the impact of these reforms on daily life. As she prepares to enter the political race, Obasanjo's statements may resonate with voters looking for capable leadership that can build on the existing economic progress made by the Tinubu administration while also addressing local issues in Ogun State.
