Ramesh Sees It Differently

Ramesh Sees It Differently — April 10, 2026

Good morning. The numbers are in for the first quarter and they confirm, once again, what this administration has known all along: vision, discipline, and petroleum produce results.

THE $159 BILLION QUESTION

Let us be direct. When critics said this government could not manage oil revenues responsibly, we noted their doubts. When they said the Natural Resource Fund would become a political instrument, we noted their fears. G$159 billion in a single quarter. Deposited. Documented. Published in the Official Gazette for any citizen to read. This is not an accident. This is the consequence of a government that insisted on transparent governance of petroleum wealth when the easier path would have been to spend first and account later. The easier path was not taken. The results are visible.
