His statement reads in part:

Tinubu speaks of Nigeria’s name

TheTalk.NG earlier reported that President Bola Tinubu has again expressed confidence in his economic plan to transform the country.

The president said he believed that the first name of Nigeria is Spirit and that the last name of the country is Can Do.

Tinubu then recalled how he revealed the new name to investors at the UK stock exchange, adding that he only wanted them to come and diversify the economy, not that Nigerians can’t do it.
