Alleged Christian Genocide: Let’s Be More Patriotic, Olowu Urges Nigerians

… Urges President Trump To Share Actionable Intelligence With Nigeria

Olowu of Kuta, HRM Oba Dr Hammeed Adekunle Makama Oyelude, CON, Tegbosun III, has urged all Nigerians to be patriotic and speak with one voice to protect our country.

Olowu, who spoke at the 35th edition of Kuta Day celebration on Saturday, said it’s imperative now more than ever to speak with one voice and unite to protect our country and defeat the terrorists once and for all.

According to Olowu, ” Irrespective of political leaning and affiliation, this is the time to show our patriotic zeal. We must all bear in mind that we must have the country first before thinking of any ambition,” he added.

To President Bola Tinubu, the monarch said, though he has improved the welfare of the military since the assumption of office on May 29, 2023, he urged him to do more to motivate our gallant officers.

To the new Service Chiefs, the revered monarch commended them for swinging into action immediately after the Senate screening and receiving oaths from their predecessors, but urged them to expedite action now that the whole world is focused on Nigeria to neutralize the terrorist groups as soon as possible.

” Your appointment is coming at the defining moment in our chequered history. I urge the service chiefs to be conscious of the fact that all resources, both human capital and equipment, must be put to the best use now to end the insurgency,” Olowu said.

Olowu, however, urged President Donald Trump to help Nigeria by sharing actionable intelligence and usable platforms that would end the insurgency as soon as possible.

Nigeria has achieved a landmark triumph in the global capital markets with the successful issuance of $2.35 billion in Eurobonds, attracting an extraordinary $13 billion orderbook — the highest in the nation’s borrowing history. The oversubscription, more than six times the offer size, stands as a bold vote of global confidence in President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Economic Reform Agenda, reinforcing Nigeria’s credibility as a disciplined and reform-driven economy.

The transaction, concluded on November 5, 2025, consisted of $1.25 billion Long 10-year bonds maturing in 2036 and $1.10 billion Long 20-year notes maturing in 2046, with yields of 8.6308% and 9.1297% respectively. Despite a turbulent international environment of high interest rates, market volatility, and cautious capital flows, the Nigerian Eurobond attracted widespread participation from investors across the United Kingdom, North America, Europe, Asia, the Middle East, and Nigeria.

The record-breaking response demonstrates that the world’s financial community is choosing confidence in Nigeria’s reforms over political noise. Notably, the result also renders recent remarks and threats by U.S. President Donald Trump against Nigeria ineffective on the international stage, as the global investment community has instead reaffirmed strong support for Nigeria’s leadership, direction, and reform agenda.

Confidence in the Renewed Hope Reforms

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, in his remarks, described the successful Eurobond as a resounding endorsement of his administration’s reform trajectory and the nation’s growing global credibility.

“We are delighted by the strong investor confidence demonstrated in our country and our reform agenda. This development reaffirms Nigeria’s position as a recognised and credible participant in the global capital market,” he said.

The Honourable Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister of the Economy, Mr. Wale Edun, OFR, noted that the oversubscription was a clear vote of confidence in the Renewed Hope Economic Reform Programme, which is focused on restoring fiscal stability, stimulating growth, and deepening investor confidence.

“This successful market access demonstrates the international community’s continued confidence in Nigeria’s reform trajectory and our commitment to sustainable, inclusive growth.”

Director-General of the Debt Management Office, Patience Oniha, described the outcome as a milestone consistent with the goals of the Renewed Hope Agenda:

“Nigeria’s ability to access the Eurobond Market to raise long-term funding needed to support the growth agenda of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is a major achievement for Nigeria and is consistent with the DMO’s objectives of supporting development and diversifying funding sources.”

Global Investors and Business Leaders React

The response from global investors has been overwhelmingly positive, with major market players praising Nigeria’s strong policy direction and resilience.

James Cartwright, Head of Emerging Market Debt at Goldman Sachs Asset Management, remarked: “Nigeria’s Eurobond success speaks louder than politics. Investors are clearly responding to the credibility of the Renewed Hope reforms and the discipline behind Nigeria’s economic management.”

Maria Estevez, Global Head of Sovereign Strategy at J.P. Morgan, added:

“The oversubscription of this magnitude shows global faith in Nigeria’s leadership. The market has ignored political tensions and focused on substance — reforms, stability, and credibility.”

David Thompson, Senior Portfolio Manager at BlackRock, observed:

“Nigeria’s policy actions are winning respect. The Renewed Hope economic reforms have restored predictability, and that’s exactly what long-term investors look for.”

Dr. Fiona Lee, Senior Economist at Standard Chartered Global Research, summed it up:

“This result sends a clear message — global markets are responding to Nigeria’s fiscal and monetary reforms, not to external threats or political rhetoric. The numbers speak for themselves.”

Financing Growth, Strengthening Stability

The proceeds from the Eurobond will fund the 2025 fiscal deficit and finance key development initiatives under the Renewed Hope Agenda, including infrastructure expansion, energy transition, and job creation. The Notes will be listed on the London Stock Exchange, FMDQ Securities Exchange Limited, and the Nigerian Exchange Limited, enhancing transparency and liquidity.

The transaction was jointly managed by Chapel Hill Denham, Citigroup, Goldman Sachs, J.P. Morgan, and Standard Chartered Bank as Joint Bookrunners, with FSDH Merchant Bank Limited serving as Financial Adviser.

A Global Vote of Confidence in Nigeria’s Direction

Nigeria’s $2.35 billion Eurobond success is not just a financial accomplishment — it is a global statement of trust. The record $13 billion orderbook reflects an emphatic message: the world believes in Nigeria’s economic recovery and in the leadership of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

Despite President Trump’s recent criticisms and perceived policy threats toward Nigeria, the global markets have made their position clear — confidence in Nigeria remains unshaken. The success of the Eurobond proves that the Renewed Hope Economic Reform Agenda is winning hearts, minds, and investments across continents.

Nigeria has reasserted itself as a credible, reform-driven player in the global economy — charting a new course anchored on transparency, resilience, and renewed investor trust.
