President Bola Tinubu Tuesday received accolades from the private sector for his policy decisions on the nation’s economy since he assumed office about three months ago.

The Chairman of HEIRS Holdings and Transcorp PLC, Mr Tony Elumelu, who spoke to newsmen after a private meeting with President Tinubu at the State House, Abuja acknowledged that the president had taken good decisions in the interest of the country, saying the private sector had been encouraged by the steps taken so far.

According to him, all things done by Tinubu so far had been in the interest of all Nigerians, especially women and the youths, adding that in the long run, Nigeria will benefit from it all while imploring Nigerians to be patient with the president.

His words: “The private sector is encouraged with the bold decisions President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has taken and we hope that in the fullness of time, Nigerians will benefit from it because it’s all about the Nigerian people, it’s all about our youths, it’s all about making sure our women are involved and empowered. 

“It’s all about making sure our youths get jobs and I think Mr President has this at the back of his mind and I believe, as a private sector person, that the actions and the decisions the president is taking now will help our people in the long run.”

He urged Nigerians to be more patient with the president and the ongoing process, saying: “A bit of patience, you know Rome was not built in a day.”
