Fact Check: In 2 years, Did Tinubu Borrow More Money Than 3 Presidents Combined? by Slytiger(op): 2:00pm On Jun 13, 2025
According to Grok, X AI, Peter Obi's claim about Tinubu borrowing more money than the past 3 president combined is not accurate.

Peter Obi's claim that Tinubu's government borrowed more in two years than Yar'Adua, Jonathan, and Buhari combined appears inaccurate.

Data shows Nigeria's debt at 94.23 billion USD by Q4 2024 under Tinubu, while the combined debt of prior administrations is roughly 213.84 billion USD.

However, debt figures vary due to exchange rates and definitions of "borrowing." The claim oversimplifies complex financial data, and exact new loan amounts are unclear. Further scrutiny is needed for a definitive conclusion.

Obi’s claim is not true, Tinubu did not borrow more than the last three presidents and to be fair, he’s really trying his best to fix the economy and move the country forward.

Nigerians, please Obi, Atiku and Tinubu are Children of the same mother.

They may have different characteristics, but family curse is family curse.

They have lots of baggages, lots of friends, lots of corruption cases.

Where are their children?
Did any of their children school in Nigeria?
If they are sick today, will they attend Nigerian hospitals?




Please lets have sense, I am tired of this suffering. Lets vote outsider, someone that has never held a political post.

Even how t put out question on AI search you no sabi
Ask for break down and total money borrowed by SW president since 2023 as foreign debt
Then ask how much is domestic debt since 2023.

Imagine how they have been deliberately sounding incoherently on this thread instead of calling their principal out.

No sensible person needs grok or any fact checking effort to know that Peter Obi lied shamelessly about the claim. That dude is just so desperate for attention and power.

When SW president came in 2023.our domestic debt was 48 trillion plus.As of December 2025 without 2025

The domestic debt is 70 trillion from bonds,sukuk and Treasury bills. That is extra 22 trillion plus he has collected. When I add 2025 it will be heading to 80 trillion in domestic debt

SW president? You can't hold it any longer. The pain and agony that a Yoruba man is ruling over you is really burning up your soul. You have a very long way to go. Warm up. Your wailing is just starting.

How is it not true, even the OP couldnt discredit accurately

Lets even say Tinubu did not borrow more loans than his 3 predecessors combine, one by one nkor ... which one Tinubu no borrow pass at the rate we are going

When you guyz claiming Tinubu is fixing the economg how exactly, GDP and per capital income is not rising

Favourable trade is not on the rise

Crude production is not close to max,

Business are not finding cost of operation convenient, even loan interest is suicidal

So what are the indexes you see that make you delusional Tinubu is tryin to fix the economy, what as improved
