No Steady Power In Four Years, No Second Term: Obi Reminds Tinubu Of His Promise by jmoore(op): 7:38pm On Jan 28
“No Steady Power in Four Years, No Second Term” – Tinubu

President Bola Tinubu’s campaign promise in 2022 was clear: “If I do not provide steady electricity in my first four years, do not vote for me for a second term.” Yet, in January 2026 alone, the national grid has already collapsed twice, and the month is not even over. Last year, it collapsed about twelve times. This reality sharply contradicts the promise and should worry every patriotic Nigerian.

At the same time, the President is on another foreign trip, this time to Turkey, a country of about 87 million people—roughly a third of Nigeria’s population. Yet Turkey generates and distributes over 120,000 megawatts of electricity, while Nigeria struggles with less than 5% of that capacity. The contrast is both striking and painful.

Our appeal is simple: stay at home and confront the nation’s problems. At this rate, we may soon hear of trips to Palau or Vanuatu while critical issues remain unattended at home.

And yet, our collective preoccupation seems to be the next election, rather than how to secure good governance. We should be joining hands to demand accountability and responsible leadership, and to save Nigerians from the indignity and suffering caused by persistent bad governance

A New Nigeria is POssible.

Tinubu take responsibility or you lose 2027 elections.
Re: No Steady Power In Four Years, No Second Term: Obi Reminds Tinubu Of His Promise by richiemcgold:
If I should rate Tinubu, based on electricity alone, I'll give him 2/10.

.. very poor

I don't think this current government has really done anything to improve power supply. No improvement so far, it is even getting worse. Especially in the last 6 months, many businesses are crumbling and struggling to survive due to poor electricity. Let's not deceive ourselves, as far as electricity is concerned, Tinubu is a failure.
