A Candid Message to Nigerians: The Truth About Tinubu/APC Government | Southwest PDP Ex-Officio Prince Adedipe

It is important that we, as Nigerians, face the truth and stop celebrating mediocrity under the guise of political allegiance.

The Tinubu/APC administration recently paid off a $3.4 billion IMF loan, which constitutes less than 25% of Nigeria’s foreign debt. However, instead of prioritizing the nation’s economic stability, this same administration is already seeking to borrow a staggering new loan of $21.5 billion.

This is the same government and President that some ignorant individuals expect me to celebrate after two years in office two years with no reasonable or tangible achievements to show for their time in power. What exactly are we celebrating? Worsening economic conditions? Increasing hardship? Or the lack of meaningful development?

It is unfortunate that, in expressing these truths, I receive insulting messages from certain individuals people who, sadly, are also victims of this hardship. Many of these individuals cannot even afford to pay their children’s school fees or eat two square meals a day. Yet, they continue to blindly support the Tinubu/APC-led administration—a government that has consistently failed to alleviate their suffering.

Even more disheartening are the tribalistic attacks I receive. Some have gone as far as calling me a “bastard indigene” of Lagos and questioning my loyalty as a Yoruba man simply because I criticize a fellow Yoruba, President Tinubu. To these people, I ask: When will we, as Nigerians, move beyond tribalism and unite to rescue our nation from bad governance and entrenched corruption?

It is time we stop glorifying failure. We must stop packaging incompetence as progress. The future of our unborn children is at stake. Nigerians must rise, speak the truth, and stand for what is right. The Tinubu/APC government is a failure this is not a matter of opinion, but of lived reality. Nigerians are tired. Nothing is working in the country anymore.

Let us begin preparing to renovate our nation, not just the roads or physical structures like Aso Rock, but our entire governance structure. Come 2027, APC must not return to power. The people deserve a break from this cycle of hardship and hopelessness.

Tinubu/APC must go.
