President Bola Tinubu has assured Nigerian workers of his administration’s unwavering commitment to improving their welfare, describing them as the driving force behind the country’s economic and social progress.

In a Workers’ Day message delivered on Thursday, President Tinubu hailed the resilience, dedication, and contributions of Nigerian workers across all sectors—both public and private—as central to the nation’s development.

“You are the engine of our economy and the secret to our nation’s growth,” the President said. “Our administration has and will continue to prioritise workers’ welfare. Together, we will make Nigeria great again.”

He acknowledged the efforts of every Nigerian—young and old, entrepreneur or employee, formal or informal—who contributes meaningfully to the well-being of homes, communities, and the nation at large.

The President used the occasion to reaffirm his promise to build a more inclusive, fair, and productive economy, one where the dignity of labour is respected and rewarded.

As the country marked May Day, President Tinubu concluded with a unifying message: “Happy Worker’s Day, Nigeria!”
