President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has expressed strong satisfaction with the progress of work of the South East Development Commission (SEDC) in the past 100 days, and charged the commission to “fast-track execution and deliver impact.”

President Tinubu expressed his satisfaction with the commission when the SEDC Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer, Mark Okoye II, briefed him on the 100-day report of the SEDC.
“Earlier today, I had the honour of briefing His Excellency, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, on the 100-day report of the South East Development Commission (SEDC).

“Mr. President expressed strong satisfaction with our progress — from our bold vision to catalyze a $200B regional economy through collaboration with state governments and the private sector, to our #RenewedHope programs and strategy to align SEDC’s efforts with the aspirations of the South East,” Okoye said after he met with the President at the Presidential Villa Abuja.

Noting that for students of history, this moment was deeply significant, Okoye said “Since the end of the civil war in 1970, no Nigerian President — military or civilian — had granted the South East’s longstanding request for a development commission focused on reconstruction and rehabilitation. Mr. President broke that 54-year jinx. Thank you, Boss.”

He said: “Mr. President’s charge to me was clear: fast-track execution and deliver impact.”
The SEDC, covering Abia, Anambra, Ebonyi, Enugu, and Imo states, was officially established on July 24, 2024, when President Tinubu signed its bill into law, marking a historic milestone for the region.

It has as its mission, “to drive sustainable development, economic growth, and unity in the South East through strategic investments and empowerment initiatives.” The commission’s vision is to position the South East as the preferred investment destination in Africa by 2035.

Its board was inaugurated on February 12, 2025, signaling the beginning of operations aimed at addressing decades of post-war neglect and fostering regional growth.

the tinubulation of the whole country

Tinubu is a C0nquer0r.

Singlehandedly used their hatredd to crown himself. 👑

Despite southeast suffering from civil war, it is not headquarters of poverty neither is it educationally disadvantaged.

Southeast have been doing fine and will continue to do better without TINUBULATION.

Hehehe 🤣😂 all these our APC sellout politicians self 😏 . . . well I won't blame them, anything to make them eat his money is welcome 🤗

One single vote is all they can assure him of on election day

At the speed APC is going, the headline would soon read, "Tinubu, like modern day Mungo Park, would soon discover South East", a hitherto unknown enclave in the thick rainforest of Eastern South of Nigeria.

While the president is trying so hard to DISplease the masses who gave him the job in Aso Rock, with so much suffering, anguish and sorrow in the land from economic hardship and insecurity.

How do you explain the disconnect and irony

May Day: Hunger, unemployment, insecurity real— Tinubu

According to him: “The theme demands our collective attention and serves as a stark reminder of the need to create an environment where every worker feels safe, valued, and empowered to contribute to the growth and prosperity of our nation. As your President, I assure you that this istration is committed to creating such an environment for the common good.”

On the economic hardship, he noted that while it is a global phenomenon, its effects on Nigerians are particularly severe.

Tinubu said: “I am aware of the peculiarities of the economic hardship Nigerians face—rising living costs, hunger, insecurity, unemployment, and the loss of livelihoods. These challenges are real and demand definitive solutions, which I am poised to address as your President.

Celebrating Nonsense all the time. What stupid jinx

Is that the meaning of Soludo's message before the 2023 elections, where Obi got 100% votes in the five SE states

jameshankss:
Arguing that Obi’s presidential bid would only work in favour of Tinubu, Soludo said, “Indeed, if I were Asiwaju Tinubu, I would even give Peter Obi money as someone heading one of the departments of his campaign, because Obi is making Tinubu’s pathway to victory much easier by indirectly pulling down PDP.”

Obi, according to Soludo, would only deplete the votes of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and pave the path for an APC victory.

He stated, “The current fleeting frenzy, if not checked, will cost Ndigbo dearly for years. The South-east has the lowest number of votes of any region, but it is also the only region where the presidential race might be a four-way race (it is a two-way race in the other five regions) thereby, ensuring that our votes won’t count in the making of the next president of Nigeria.

Unfortunately for you, the president does not need a single vote from the SE to win the next election.

That region has zero electoral value.

SEDC projects wey we no see in reality but read dem on top paper na audio

Whining pro max
The Agbado sifu has done nothing but malinger while in power
Smh

It's for sane and progressive Ndigbos, not for usefulidiots and G&H Ndigbos.

Lamba, no b only $200B south east economy

Follow who know road. Asiwaju knows what he's doing.

So he's just wasting his money and time then 🤡

As usual 😏 no wonder he has no single achievement to showcase against his 2027 abracadabra

Thank you president Tinubu for all you're doing the southeast. Even my village recently benefited from Tinubu's road projects and the whole community is happy!

We'll vote massively for Tinubu in 2027.
