Five things the Tinubu Administration is getting right.
1. Fiscal reforms and revenue generation. The removal of the fuel subsidy has freed up significant resources, leading to a surge in federation revenues and more funds flowing to states and local governments for infrastructure, salaries, and development.

2. GDP growth and economic stabilization. Q1 2026 saw growth around 3.89%. The non-oil sector contributes the bulk, showing diversification momentum alongside oil recovery. Reforms like FX unification have supported trade surpluses and investor confidence.

3. Education access via NELFUND student loans & curbing ASUU strike actions. Over 1.5 million students gaining access to funding across hundreds of institutions. This marks a major expansion of access to higher education, reducing reliance on strikes and improving stability in universities

4. Strengthening foreign reserves and FX stability. External reserves have climbed to multi-year highs with reported $50 billion+ as of today , representing a 17 year peak. This reflects better management, inflows, and policy adjustments, contributing to greater exchange rate stability compared to earlier volatility. I ❤️this!

5. Infrastructure & resumption of abandoned projects. Ongoing road construction/rehabilitation (thousands of km), rail upgrades, new dams and aviation upgrades + expansions.

I will be dropping a post on 5 things they haven’t gotten right tomorrow. For now, what else have they gotten right ?

The Agulu fraud you are following could not provide clean water in Anambra for 8 solid years he used as Governor. Pile of rubbish and refuse took over the State while the 'gbaju e' was busy stealing 250 million every month till he was caught and exposed in Lagos.

You better wake up and see the changes happening. The coastal road your temu-messiah has been criticizing can unlock multi-billion dollar investments across the coastal corridor alone, not to talk of opportunities and massive jobs it will create.

There is difference between a first class graduate/ scholar and a third class degree 'let my people go' certificate holder.

Local government autonomy, whatever grey areas that is required to accomplished that can be traced to governors unwillingness to implement it.

Power generation, transmission and distribution has also been placed in the hands of the state governors

So your iragbiji fraud (& all his anointed successors) gave/gives Lagos residents water in Lagos & Lagos is clean without refuse

He steals more than 250 million naira from Lagos daily via AlphaBeta, land grabbing etc

Is it Govt College Ibadan certificate or University of Chicago or Chicago State University certificate, which one are you referring to please

Put a new born baby there and the baby that doesn’t know anything will get some things right.

Let’s stop all these nonsense and call a spade a spade.

This man has no business being President.

All these you said the Agulu fraud couldn’t provide while he was governor, the one you support also failed to provide any of those for the state he governed for the same 8 year period.

Do you even know what’s funnier, he claims he has a blueprint which his successors follow till date. 1999-2026 is 27 years. Two decades and seven years of a blueprint and the blueprint doesn’t seem to have a provision for potable water for the people of Lagos.

Go round all the roads in Lagos from Surulere to Epe, to Alimosho and Amuwo Odofin, there’s one thing you’ll find in common, heaps of dirt by the median and on the road.

I wonder why the master plan couldn’t cater for proper waste disposal.

Or is the master plan just to enrich a few and create millions of area boys?

Anambra is a glorified village compared to Lagos that has been a city even before Nigeria got her independence.

As at 2025, the rate of open defecation in Anambra was still very high, which shows failure of governance in the State.

What are we even saying.. can you compare the population of Lagos State to Anambra?.. how much allocation is Lagos getting to cater for the huge population compared to Anambra with tiny fraction of Lagos State population but still getting excess resources used for God knows what.

How old were you in the 90s' when Lagos streets were as clean as those of Dubai, London, Paris etc. till village dwellers started swamping into the State to constitute nuisance?. Kid you better park well.

You should be ashamed of yourself. Why compare Lagos an old city to Anambra that was founded less than 40 years ago?

Shouldn’t Lagos be compared to cities like London, Lisbon, Johannesburg, Capetown, New York, Paris et al?

You speak of open defecation. Lagos is the national headquarters of open defecation.

What is Tinubu’s master plan addressing in Lagos?

Transportation is chaos
Drainage system chaos
Environment chaos
Quality of life chaos
Education quality chaos


Just mention 1 area where Tinubu’s master plan has addressed any basic human needs in Lagos since the inception of his “master plan”.

In the 90s that you mentioned, was Tinubu governor or an administrator in Lagos? Do you want to ascribe successes of those before him to him as you’ve ascribed successes of those after him to him.

Go check the Lagos State IGR and what AlphaBeta gets as share for doing NOTHING! (About 8% to 10% from over N3 trillion IGR will go to AlphaBeta this year).

You can never know how much LASG allocation (about 4 trillion) esp LGA (over 1 trillion) funds gets shared abi sliced to Oga-at-the-top.

Then check the documented expenses on ex-Govs by Lagos State ranging from houses in Abuja & Lagos, vehicles (4-6 brand new every 3 years), hospital bill, pension, security personnels etc

Then check all the lands Tinubu cornered for himself and his cronies from Bourdillon to Magodo to Falomo Shopping Complex etc etc to numerous to list out.

LASG was one of the pioneer investors in Econet, what happened to the shares.

Then imagine how much his empowered louts led by McOluomo etc rakes in daily from Lagosians.

Are you aware how CoO is processed in Lagos, and what goes to where & where.

Also take a look at his relative handling BRT, do you imagine how much LASG do fund BRT but the income goes elsewhere

How about his daughter collection from markets in Lagos.

Lekki toll gate is/was another example.

Who owns the EV buses Lagos State and OVH both saying they bought; who owns OVH

The list is endless

You sound like a very semi literate person who truly might not understand how an Economy works.

Sane Nigerians are supporting Tinubu because of the trajectory of the Economy which would have made Nigeria bankrupt but salvaged by Tinubu,yes we felt and still feeling the pain.

Most of the people supporting Tinubu are looking at the Economy, infrastructures, Education,Health etc .
Prior to a major statistical overhaul, initial 2024 data reported Nigeria's nominal GDP as low as $187.6 billion
USD due to sharp currency devaluations. However, the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) updated its base calculation year to 2019.
This optimization captured missing sectors like digital finance, informal trade, and expanding services.

The 2024 economy at ₦372.8 trillion Naira, converting to roughly $243 billion to $252 billion USD depending on the specific institutional exchange rate conversion models.


The Economy is growing but the problem is that most Nigerians are not feeling it because of the rot and corruption in the system.





African nations' purchasing power in 2026 is evaluated either by Total GDP (PPP), which measures the total size of the economy adjusted for local living costs, or GDP per Capita (PPP), which indicates the average individual's purchasing power.Here is the breakdown of the leading nations in both categories:


Top 5 Economies by Total GDP (PPP).

These are the largest overall economies, reflecting massive total market scale.
Egypt: $2.57 trillion.

Nigeria: $2.42 trillion.

South Africa: $1.07 trillion.

Algeria: $941.54 billion.

Ethiopia: $558.90 billion.

Nigeria GDP 2026....

Key Economic Indicators.

The economy is expanding at a real rate of roughly 4.1- 4.5.

PPP GDP for Nigeria...

When adjusted for Purchasing Power Parity (PPP), the size of the economy is substantially larger, estimated by global databases to be around $4.0 trillion.


Broad structural reforms have stabilized the exchange rate and boosted investor confidence, keeping the nation on pace to achieve its long-term target of a $1 trillion economy by 2030.

These are some institutions projections on the GDP of Nigeria.2026 which show that things will be better fast, having come from almost the mere $187 or so after devaluation of the naira.

IMF Projections.....$334.3


Worldometer......$377.4

Statista......$377.4

World Economics (PPP)...
$4.0 Trillion.

Corruption, embezzlement, graft, maladministration, malfeasance are not done in open glare; only deep thinking can track it, esp in a State where FoI is non-existent (Lagos State govt has refused to domesticate the Freedom of Information for obvious reasons).

It is YOUR choice to close your eyes to the glaring graft, corruption, embezzlement ably enshrined & personified by Tinubu & his goons in Lagos State, and now cascading to Nigeria at large.

Exactly and this is why sane Nigerians think we are on the right trajectory of Economic growth but with some pain which had even eased since 2023 when everything went up the ceiling.
Nigerians will like to continue to see the continual Economic growth which some international institutions gave positively acknowledged and soonest,it will trickle down massively to the masses.
Institutions that have positively assessed the stability of President Tinubu's economic reforms include International Monetary Fund (IMF).... In its Article IV reports, the IMF lauded the bold reforms such as removing fuel subsidies and liberalizing the foreign exchange market for improving macroeconomic stability, strengthening external reserves, and restoring investor confidence.

Fitch Ratings....The global credit rating agency upgraded Nigeria's credit outlook, citing improved policy credibility and renewed confidence in the administration's commitment to orthodox economic policies.

World Bank.....The World Bank has consistently endorsed the administration's reform packages, viewing them as necessary steps to realign the economy, although it has noted that structural transformation will require sustained, long-term implementation.

S&P Global Ratings.......The rating agency upgraded its sovereign credit outlook, validating Nigeria's economic trajectory and increased investor confidence.
With Tinubu as President,Nigeria will rightly be on top of African Economies with around $500 billion as the first Economy and by 2031,Nigeria would have surpassed the $1 trillion target.
