Dino Melaye: Tinubu’s Government May Soon Turn To Opay For Loan by Ofunaofu(op): 11:55pm On Sep 08, 2025
Dino Melaye, a former senator, has taunted the government of President Bola Tinubu, saying it may soon turn to Fintech operating in Nigeria for loan.

The Tinubu administration has come under intense scrutiny over borrowing.

Recently, the African Democratic Congress (ADC) said the new wave of borrowing will drive Nigeria’s public debt beyond N200 trillion before the end of the year.

In a statement, National Publicity Secretary of the party, Mallam Bolaji Abdullahi, the ADC accused President Tinubu of surpassing his predecessor by mortgaging the country’s future in mountains of debts in the name of economic reform.


Speaking on ARISE Television, on Monday, Melaye accused the government of plunging Nigerians into massive hunger despite securing billions of dollars in loans.

“There is massive hunger in the land. Why is the president borrowing $1.7 billion from the World Bank? Why has the senate approved $21 billion so far with many others coming for consideration?”

“This government is one of the most reckless governments in the history of this country. The president who said he wanted to come and curb wastages bought a yacht.

“That yacht he bought has never been to the perimeters, the territorial areas of Nigeria—it’s been between Monaco and Paris. And what do we need a yacht for in a time of austerity and pervasive hunger?

“He has borrowed like no other president in the history of the country. If you are making more money, then why are you borrowing? We will not be surprised if the president starts borrowing from Opay and Moniepoint very soon,” he said.

Dino should contact same Opay if they would be able to finance the operation that will fix his two left legs.

He should look for a right leg donor and make it happen.

To me, there is nothing wrong in borrowing to fix the country.


The only issue I have with Bola Tinubu's government is that he borrows money and squanders it.


He borrows and loot it using white elephant projects like Coastal Highway that add no immediate value to Nigeria and Nigerian people's lives.


If Tinubu was borrowing and using it sincerely to develop Nigeria and better Nigeria's economy, that would have been fine but he borrows and use fake projects to loot the money away using proxies.


He removed subsidy and claimed he saved billions abi trillions while plunging Nigerians into misery and lack.


He has increased customs import duty severally all to raise money.

He has increased international passport processing cost twice.

He increased Telecom tariffs.

He increased electricity tariffs and added Band A, B, C, D, etc, all to raise money.

He removed subsidy on tertiary education tuition fees and brought a sham student loan, loan oh!


He unified exchanged rate.

He has brought a dangerous tax law that will be implemented next year which will further kill many businesses and companies.

He has introduced housing insurance which will cause rent to increase nationwide

He said he is implementing fuel tax which will cause price of petrol per liter to increase meaning more hardship next year.

Still the economy keep collapsing, Nigerian people's purchasing power keep dying daily, businesses keep struggling with patronage because Nigerians can't afford to spend on things they need.


Honestly any Nigerian that vote for this man in 2027 needs to be checked thoroughly.

So long as 230 millions rely on revenue that can only satisfy less than 10 million people, we are going to take loans. No two ways about it.

All because your government does not diversify the economy and stop corruption and wasteful spending which includes subsides on power for non band A customer and palliatives and wheelbarrow for boys.

Short term, taxes, medium term , agric, long term manufactured goods and services

Opay loan is even better than Tinubu's government.
This is because the money borrowed from opay loan can be used for personal investment or benefits.
But Tinubu's government borrows billions from China while making Nigerians pay back the loan through various high TAXES.

WHAT A TERRIBLE GOVERNMENT.

In response to this, Tinubu will send DSS to request all Social Media platforms to deactivate his account.


I don't know who told Tinubu that we're in an Authoritarian or Totalitarian administration.
Re: Dino Melaye: Tinubu’s Government May Soon Turn To Opay For Loan by donmixc: 6:10am On Sep 09, 2025

Why not, if not?
If OPay have the capacity, all that matters is that Government should not borrow from Pension Funds

If OPay should appoint Dino as a brand ambassador, what a cheap advert
