A staggering 83% of Nigerians have expressed little or no trust in the administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, according to the 2025 Social Cohesion Survey by the Africa Polling Institute (API).

A total of 5,465 face-to-face household interviews were conducted using a stratified random sampling method, targeting citizens aged 15 and above.

The interviews were carried out in five major languages—English, Pidgin, Hausa, Igbo, and Yoruba—with geographic quotas assigned to ensure proportional representation across all states and senatorial districts.

The report shows that 53% of respondents said they have "no trust at all" in the Tinubu government, while 30% admitted to having "little trust."

Similarly, 82% expressed the same lack of confidence in the National Assembly under Senate President Godswill Akpabio and House Speaker Tajudeen Abbas.

Trust in the judiciary was also poor, with 79% of Nigerians stating they had little or no faith in the institution under both the former Chief Justice Kayode Ariwoola and current CJN, Justice Kudirat Kekere-Ekun.

API attributed the loss of trust to growing economic hardship, perceived corruption, and unmet campaign promises, all of which have eroded public faith in governance.

It stated, “The survey findings report growing citizens' distrust and low public confidence in the government and public institutions.

“Specifically, 83% of Nigerians expressed little to no trust in the government of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu; and 82% expressed the same sentiments in the National Assembly under the leadership of Senate President, Dr. Godswill Akpabio and House of Representatives Speaker, Rt. Hon. Tajudeen Abass. Also, 79% said they have little to no trust in the judiciary, under the leadership of the erstwhile CJN, Justice Kayode Ariwoola, and the current one, Justice Kudirat Kekere-Ekun.”

“In comparison with previous editions (2019, 2021 and 2022), the data reveals that citizens' trust and public confidence are currently at their lowest ebb,” it said.

Sahara reporters need to invest heavily into their propaganda machine. What you get when you employ cheap labour to cook propagandas for you. Same with Papa Oseloka, always recruiting dullards for media publicity.

Like how do you expect a sane, logical and in-tuned person to believe this cheaply made and quack statistics.

These agents don’t know who they actually up against. Using WAEC holders to manufacture propaganda that cannot even sell to a dullard.

Anyways, such statistics moves and shakes nothing. The re-election of His Excellency, President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu (GCFR) is guaranteed and a constant.

Which planet exactly are the 17% located, certainly not Nigeria.

If Tinubu win 2027 Presidential elections then it means something is fundamentally wrong with Nigeria.


Nigeria cannot afford to have Tinubu continue as President after May 2027.



Tinubu have nothing to offer except tribal division of Nigeria, nothing more, nothing less. The more he remains in office, the more Nigeria is divided along ethnic divide and it's sad, Tinubu must go

You talk as if he won the last one!

Besides rigging the entire electoral process from start to finish, what else is he banking on.....is it the 'love and trust' of majority of Nigerians?
