Tinubu met the average Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth rate of 1.8 per cent. In terms of the inflation rate, the four-year average preceding the administration of Tinubu was 15.1 per cent. But the Tinubu government is not resting on its oars. They are working tirelessly every day to find solutions to the problems.”</em></p> <p>The post <a href="https://www.naijanews.com/2024/04/02/tinubu-inherited-worst-economic-challenge-karimi/">Tinubu Inherited Worst Economic Challenge – Karimi</a> appeared first on <a href="https://www.naijanews.com">Naija News</a>.</p>
