The President and Chief Executive Officer of Funab Group of Companies Limited, Alhaji Ibrahim Mohammed Ajia, has called on Nigerians to work hand-in-hand to build a strong and resilient economy that would benefit unborn generations.
Ajia made the call after paying a courtesy visit to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, on the last day of 2023, at the president’s home in Ikoyi Lagos state.
He was accompanied by Hon. Muktar Aliyu Betara, Chairman House of Representatives Committee on FCT; Alh. Musa Yakubu, CEO of Musaco Investment Ltd, and Hon. Mohammed Almakura.
Ajia, in his New Year message tagged: “Message of possibilities, hopes, and aspirations for a brighter future,” said, “As we bid farewell to the challenges of the past year, let us welcome the fresh beginnings and endless possibilities that the New Year brings. Let our hearts be filled with possibilities, hopes, aspirations, and anticipations for a brighter future, especially with regard to our country’s economy and security.
“The year 2024 holds great potential for economic growth and stability for our beloved nation, Nigeria. Let us work hand-in-hand, to build a strong and resilient economy that will not only benefit us today, but also generations to come; that will also make our businesses thrive, investments flourish, and job opportunities abound for all our citizens.”
He also noted that security challenges should not be taken lightly, adding: “We call upon our leaders, both at the state and national levels, to govern with the fear of God and good conscience. The protection and well-being of the people should be their highest priority.
“Let us invest in our security forces, equip them with the necessary tools, and provide them with ample training and support. Only then can we truly ensure the safety and peace of our people.
“We urge you to implement policies that will alleviate the suffering of our people. We understand the challenges and complexities of governance, but we implore you to always have the welfare of the citizens at heart.”
