President Bola Tinubu has pushed back against criticism from opposition figures over Nigeria’s economic hardship, arguing that his administration should not be blamed for all the challenges facing Nigerians.
The President’s position comes amid continued debate over the rising cost of living, fuel prices, food costs, transportation and other economic pressures affecting households across the country.
Opposition politicians have repeatedly criticised the Tinubu administration over the impact of its economic policies, while the Federal Government has maintained that its reforms are necessary to rebuild the Nigerian economy and put the country on a stronger footing.
As political activities ahead of the 2027 elections intensify, the economic situation is becoming one of the biggest issues dividing the APC and opposition camps.
Why is Tinubu asking the opposition not to blame him for the hardship? Who is responsible for Nigeria’s current economic situation, and are the government’s reforms beginning to deliver the promised results?
