AfCFTA: Social Action Commends PMB
Social Action commends Nigeria’s President Muhammadu Buhari for his critical and empathetic approach toward signing the AFCFTA Agreement.
This is contained in a statement titled ‘AfCFTA: NIGERIA CUSTOMS SERVICE, OTHERS, COULD TRUNCATE PACT IF…’widely circulated and received by the INFORMAVORES ONLINE NEWS
The statement said, “The enactment of the AfCFTA is indeed good news for Nigeria and the African continent at large. [adrotate banner="51"] Securing free trade throughout the continent has the potential to kick-start Africa’s industrial revolution and develops its economy in ways never before seen. The UN estimates that under the AfCFTA, intra-African trade could increase by 52.3 percent by 2022. When its implementation kicks off, the agreement will boost intra-African trade by removing tariffs on 90 percent of goods while the rest ten percent of tariffs being on “sensitive goods” would be also be eliminated subsequently, albeit gradually.”
“However, it is imperative to warn that Nigeria would only stand to harness and indeed maximise the benefits of this landmark trade deal if it immediately moves to put in place the right policies, frameworks and indeed structures to achieve set out goals. Key institutions such as customs and immigration services must rise above board and dispense of their key roles in this continental pact with national pride and integrity, eliminating all known as well as contrived constraints including corruption that would jeopardize the smooth operation of the trade deal.”
“Government must also move quickly to address the infrastructural gaps such as electricity that undermines productivity of companies in Nigeria. Addressing infrastructural gaps will lead to reduced cost of production and stimulate industrial growth. This will in the long run provide Nigerian companies with the opportunity to access large continental markets and thus gain from the economy of scale as well as mitigate adverse balance of trade.”
“Furthermore, time cannot be better than now, to pursue and implement the National Industrial Revolution Plan to strengthen the country’s Industrial sector, to empower it to effectively compete with those of other climates.”
“It must also ensure genuine diversification of the economy by affecting a paradigm shift from the mono-product situation of the country to multi-product to afford Nigeria the impetus to harness not just the new African trade deal but others as the proposed open EU markets.”
“The AFCFTA therefore, offers ample opportunity for industrialization and job creation as it has provided the platform for Small and Medium Enterprises in Nigeria to connect to regional and continental value chains while consolidating the country’s position as the biggest economy in Africa.”
Social Action commends Nigeria’s President Muhammadu Buhari for his critical and empathetic approach toward signing the AFCFTA Agreement, a move which helped to scrutinize and understand the import of the agreement to Nigerian Economy. It notes that the President’s method in activating rigorous consultations and assessments and scrutiny, was to ensure that the agreement becomes a meaningful platform for Nigerian manufacturers of goods and providers of service to showcase and offer to the continent their unique products and services, as well as to reciprocally receive products and services from other African nations thereby revolutionizing Africa into ‘Factory Africa’. The President was also right in insistence on not only free but fair trade
Nigeria has joined other African countries to make history by signing the world’s largest free trade area deal, encompassing 55 countries and over 1.2 billion people. The signing of the trade deal by the country’s President Muhammadu Buhari at the 12th extra ordinary summit of the African Union, AU effectively brings into force, the trade agreement between 55 African Union nations that would create a single market backed by an African single-currency as well as a free movement protocol among others.

Yakubu made the call in Abuja in a stateement released and personally signed, saying that official resolution channels and necessary steps are pursued to address the irregularities and grievance.
He said, “My Dear Brothers, Sisters, Supporters, and Members of the YMK NIGERIA PROJECT,
“I wish to specially thank each and every one of you for your unwavering loyalty, sacrifices, prayers, and relentless commitment throughout the just concluded PRP Presidential Primary Elections.
“From the North to the South, East to West, your overwhelming support, courage, and belief in our collective vision for a better Nigeria remain deeply inspiring to me. Together, we built a formidable movement anchored on hope, justice, inclusion, and genuine national transformation.
“However, it is with a heavy heart that I acknowledge that the outcome declared from the primaries did not reflect the true wishes of our supporters, delegates, and the overwhelming momentum we enjoyed across the country. What transpired was clearly marred by a grand conspiracy and coordinated manipulation against our collective democratic aspirations.
“Nevertheless, I urge all members and supporters of the YMK NIGERIA PROJECT to remain calm, peaceful, law-abiding, and resolute in this difficult moment. We must not allow provocation, disappointment, or frustration to derail the noble cause we have collectively built.
“I want to assure you that we have already initiated appropriate steps through constitutional, party, and legal channels to challenge these irregularities and reclaim our stolen and overwhelming victory. We remain committed to due process, justice, fairness, and the rule of law.
“This struggle is not merely about an election; it is about protecting the integrity of democracy, defending the voice of the people, and securing the future we all believe in for our nation.
“I therefore appeal to all our supporters nationwide to remain united, steadfast, vigilant, and hopeful. Do not lose faith. Do not be discouraged.
“History has consistently shown that truth and justice ultimately prevail over conspiracy and manipulation.
“Further developments and necessary directives shall be communicated to you accordingly through our official communication channels.
May God Almighty continue to bless and strengthen us all.
Yours faithfully,
Engr. Dr. Yakubu Mohammed Kingsley Nigeria Presidential Aspirant, People’s Redemption Party (PRP)

Ajia, in a statement issued on Tuesday by his Director of Communications and Strategy, Mallam Abdulrahman Aliagan, said Eid-ul-Kabir remains a sacred season that teaches the values of sacrifice, obedience, tolerance, humility, and unwavering faith in Almighty Allah.
He noted that Nigeria’s present political and economic realities demand selfless leadership and sincere commitment to the welfare of the people, especially as political activities ahead of the 2027 general elections continue to intensify across the country.
“Eid-ul-Kabir is not only a celebration of faith and sacrifice, it is also a reminder that leadership must be built on justice, compassion, accountability, and service to humanity,” Ajia stated.
The philanthropist and community leader stressed that Kwara State has continued to enjoy relative peace because of the culture of tolerance, harmony, and mutual respect among its people, warning against divisive politics capable of heating up the polity.
“Political ambition should never override the peace and unity of Kwara State. Leaders and supporters across party lines must avoid inflammatory rhetoric, bitterness, and actions capable of disrupting the peaceful atmosphere the state is known for,” he added.
Ajia further urged political actors to place the collective interest of the people above personal or sectional considerations, saying the state’s democratic future must be driven by issue-based engagements and peaceful participation.
The Ilorin-born security expert commended the Emir of Ilorin, Ibrahim Sulu-Gambari, for his consistent fatherly leadership and commitment to peace, unity, moral guidance, and harmonious coexistence among the people of Kwara State and beyond.
“The Emir of Ilorin has continued to serve as a symbol of peace, moderation, and unity. His fatherly role and wise counsel remain invaluable to the stability and progress of Kwara State,” Ajia said.
Ajia, also called on Nigerians to use the Eid celebration to pray for national healing, economic recovery, improved security, and sustainable development across the country.
“As Muslims commemorate the sacrifice and devotion of Prophet Ibrahim (AS), Nigerians must embrace love, peaceful coexistence, mutual respect, and renewed hope for a better future,” the statement added.
He prayed that Almighty Allah accepts the prayers and sacrifices of the Muslim faithful and grants Nigeria enduring peace, stability, and prosperity
