“Nigeria will become a net exporter of food. We are bringing thousands of tractors. Food production will be greatly expanded through aggressive mechanization. We must be productive as a people. That is the Sunnah and the principles I grew up understanding,” he said.
Tinubu thanked the Global Tijjaniyya Movement for their support and prayers, emphasizing the importance of collective efforts in building a better Nigeria.
On his part, Sheikh Mahe Niass, the Khalifa of Tijjaniyya, who spoke on behalf of the delegation, commended President Tinubu for his unwavering commitment to Nigeria’s peace, progress and stability.
The delegation offered prayers for the nation’s progress, unity and prosperity, and for Almighty Allah to grant President Tinubu wisdom, strength and success in piloting the affairs of the country.
