President Bola Tinubu has said that he deserves to be in the Guinness Book of World Records (GWR) considering what he has done in Nigeria.
Tinubu insisted that he began economic reforms from his first day in office, hence his name should be in the GWR.
The president stated this while addressing Nigerians in Germany yesterday.
Tinubu noted that he has a private sector background and Nigerians voted for him for reforms and his track record as former Governor of Lagos state.
