I said GDP you are showing GDP per capita

Don't you read what you posted?
I said GDP per capita dropped by 40% oga

GDP and GDP per capita are not the same

Nigeria GDP per capita was 1596 dollars in 2023
Now it's 850 dollars in 2024 ... So it's even more than 40% I called earlier


Now to GDP nigeria GDP was 363 billion dollars in 2023
Now in 2025 it's 194 billion dollars that's a 47.5% drop which is not far from my 50% statement

He don run,that guy attempts to sound intelligent,but his knowledge capacity fails him and proves otherwise…

He even has to ask AI the question directly without confirming the value to even see if it’s close to what you said

But Buhari did?
I laugh in fulfulde

No doubt about this. PBAT's major offence to them is that he doesn't allow arbitrage in forex. Majority of people who were making illicit money through the old FX regime are those sponsoring hunger protest, unfortunately many Nigerians are falling for it. How can we be borrowing and be selling our crude in advance to defend Naira and people think that's the right way?Why should Nigeria be operating multiple exchange rates? The fact that we never entered recession since the inception of this administration should tell people things are being done rightly.Whether now or later, people would realise President Tinubu is one of the best leaders Nigeria ever had.

See progress update on Tinubu’s eight point agenda as per Grok AI.

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu unveiled his eight-point agenda in August 2023, aiming to address Nigeria’s socioeconomic challenges within three years. The agenda includes:
(1) Food Security,
(2) Ending Poverty,
(3) Economic Growth and Job Creation,
(4) Access to Capital,
(5) Improving Security,
(6) Improving the Playing Field for Businesses,
(7) Rule of Law, and
( Fighting Corruption.

Nearly two years into his administration, as of March 14, 2025, progress can be assessed based on available data and developments, though comprehensive, up-to-date official reports specific to all eight points are limited. Here’s an evaluation based on what’s known:

1. Food Security
Tinubu’s administration has aimed to boost agricultural output to address food insecurity, exacerbated by inflation and insecurity. Farmers have returned to some areas due to improved security, and initiatives like the Dry Season Farming program, launched in late 2023, have sought to increase production. However, food inflation remains high—around 40% as reported in posts on X in 2024—suggesting that supply hasn’t yet met demand effectively. The removal of fuel subsidies has also driven up transportation and production costs, offsetting some gains. Progress exists, but it’s partial and uneven.

2. Ending Poverty
Poverty alleviation hinges on job creation and social interventions. Programs like conditional cash transfers and the promised student loans (yet to fully roll out) aim to support vulnerable populations. However, inflation (around 35% in 2024 per X posts) and a stagnant minimum wage—still at ₦30,000 despite promises of an increase—have deepened economic hardship for many. Subsidy removal savings, estimated at $10 billion, have not visibly translated into widespread poverty relief, with critics on X noting funds appear "stuck" in bureaucracy. Little tangible progress is evident here.

3. Economic Growth and Job Creation
Tinubu targeted 6% GDP growth and 👉50 million jobs👈 . GDP growth has hovered around 3% (per X posts in 2025), far below the goal, though reforms like exchange rate unification and subsidy removal have stabilized reserves and improved trade balances. Local refining capacity has increased with the Dangote Refinery and NNPCL efforts, reducing import reliance. Job creation data is less clear—some infrastructure projects and security operations have generated employment, but unemployment remains high at 5% (X posts), with youth unemployment likely worse. Progress is slow and below targets.

4. Access to Capital
Efforts to enhance access to capital, particularly consumer credit, have seen limited rollout. The student loan scheme, a flagship promise, has faced delays, with no significant disbursements reported by early 2025. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) still struggle with high interest rates and limited credit access, despite rhetoric about stimulating entrepreneurship. The naira’s devaluation (over 70% since 2023) has attracted some foreign investment, but domestic capital access remains constrained. Minimal progress so far.

5. Improving Security
Security has seen notable strides. The administration claims over 8,000 criminals neutralized and 10,000 people rescued, enabling farming resumption in parts of the North. Banditry and insurgency persist, however, with ongoing violence reported in 2025 (X posts and Amnesty critiques from 2023). Military operations have intensified, but a comprehensive resolution remains elusive. Progress is significant but incomplete.

6. Improving the Playing Field for Businesses
Exchange rate unification and subsidy removal aim to level the economic playing field by reducing distortions. Non-oil exports grew 6.3% in 2024 (NBS via X), though oil still dominates at 90% of earnings, indicating slow diversification. Infrastructure development, like railway projects with Chinese support, has progressed, but manufacturers report challenges with power and costs. The agenda’s promise of a fairer business environment is advancing, but structural issues persist.

7. Rule of Law
Tinubu’s commitment to the rule of law has been questioned. Appointments like a minister without an NYSC certificate (noted on X in 2023) and perceived judicial interference have drawn criticism. No major judicial reforms or high-profile accountability measures have been highlighted. Progress here appears stagnant or undermined by political actions.

8. Fighting Corruption
Anti-corruption efforts have ramped up via the EFCC, with increased public campaigns and some high-profile probes (e.g., subsidy-related cases). However, critics argue Tinubu’s own past and political alliances limit credibility—X users in 2023 called him "the face of corruption." No systemic overhaul or convictions of major political figures have been widely reported. Efforts are visible but lack transformative impact.

Overall Assessment
Tinubu’s administration has made strides in security, economic stabilization, and refining capacity, aligning with parts of the agenda. However, food security, poverty reduction, job creation, and capital access lag significantly, hampered by inflation, slow policy execution, and unfulfilled promises like student loans and wage increases. GDP growth and unemployment figures (from X posts) suggest the economy isn’t yet on the promised trajectory. Security gains are tempered by persistent violence, and anti-corruption and rule-of-law efforts lack depth. As of March 14, 2025, progress is mixed—some foundation laid, but significant results remain elusive, with many Nigerians still feeling the pinch of reforms without broad benefits. Data gaps and sentiment on X underscore a narrative of frustration alongside pockets of optimism.

Interesting insight

Depriest2020:
If only Nigerians would exercise a little more patience, Tinubu took a very painful decision in other to get Nigerian economy back on track, the act of borrowing to fund budget and subsidies can no longer be sustained.

It's not that Tinubu can't run Nigeria same way Buhari did, but to what end? He's policies are for long term benefits and not short term benefits, in few more years things will begin to normalize.

Policies should be long, medium and short term.

If all his policies are for long term gains, the people he claims to serve would all die before then

Not a good economic manager.

He doesn't deserve second term.

In Nigeria, our politics is not for faint-hearted people.... We apply all tactics.... Sentiments, tribalism, divide and rule, blackmail, etc and if you can't stand it.... Then stop getting involved.

What does it translate to?

You will hardly get any meaningful debate from the lot that do not (want to) understand current economic policies or have sworn never to see any good in current fg.
