President Bola Tinubu has said that his name deserves to be in the Guinness Book of World Records.
According to Tinubu, his economic reforms as the governor of Lagos state which later made Nigerians elect him as president should have qualified him for Guinness World Records title.
The President made the remark at the 10th German-Nigerian Business Forum.
The President posited that his track records should earn him recognition, adding that if he was not recognised, he would strive to ensure that his name is inserted in the historic Guinness World Records.
“For those who fear various obstacles; look at me, I come from the private sector, trained by Deloitte. I served as the treasurer in Exxon Mobil. Define corporate governance in any way, and I am in it,” Tinubu said.
“I governed Lagos for eight consecutive years. Today, I can proudly beat my chest that Lagos state is on the horizon and the fifth-largest economy in Africa, rising from zero. This is the track record that led me to the presidency.
“Nigeria voted for me for reforms and from day one of my inauguration, I started the reform. To me, if you didn’t mention me in the Guinness Book of Records, I’d thrive to find a way to insert myself because I did it without expectation,” he said on a lighter note.
Tinubu’s comments came as Nigerian and German companies sealed two pivotal agreements in Berlin on Tuesday.
