Speaking during an interview on Channels Television’s Politics Today, Adedeji emphasized that the success of these reforms should be evaluated by comparing current progress against the challenging economic baseline inherited when the administration assumed office.
Highlighting improvements across multiple sectors, the NRS boss noted that state governments now possess greater financial independence to pay salaries without heavy reliance on federal intervention, while civil servants enjoy expanded access to credit facilities. He also pointed to the national student loan initiative as a landmark achievement, noting that substantial funds have been successfully disbursed to over one million students across hundreds of tertiary institutions nationwide.
Addressing macroeconomic adjustments, Adedeji explained that unifying the foreign exchange market eliminated distortions caused by historical exchange rate disparities, thereby restoring investor confidence and encouraging capital importation. Furthermore, he defended the removal of the petrol subsidy as an essential measure that paved the way for domestic refining growth, driving a sharp increase in national refining capacity.

Seeking Justice: Yomi Fabiyi Officially Petitions Police To Uncover The Truth Behind Temitope Osoba’s Death.

Through a statement shared via his Instagram account, Fabiyi announced that his organization, the Break The Silence Foundation, has formally submitted a petition to the Lagos State Commissioner of Police to initiate a formal inquiry.

He maintained that his organization would continue its independent probe regardless of funeral schedules, emphasizing the importance of prioritizing justice and accountability over emotions.
Operatives of the Nigeria Police Force (NPF) have taken Alalade Bukola Felix, popularly known as Machiavelli and serving as a Special Assistant on Media to Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke, into custody following a late-night operation at his residence.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶
According to Sahara Reporters, the incident unfolded at approximately 1:00 AM on Monday when security personnel arrived at the aide’s home. According to an account provided by his wife, Folakemi, family members initially hesitated to open the door because the identities of the individuals outside could not be immediately verified.
While a voice recording from the scene captured Alalade asking the operatives to identify themselves and expressing willingness to step outside voluntarily, sounds of the entrance being forced open were also documented. Folakemi recounted that after officers began banging on the door and demanding entry, they ultimately broke through the barrier and brought her husband away.
Although the operatives stated they were police officers, they reportedly did not specify their particular unit or formation, nor did they inform the family of the specific offense leading to the arrest. Folakemi noted that she later received information indicating her husband was transferred to the State Criminal Investigation Department in Osogbo.
