Thundafireseun:The listed achievements above are often overstated, incomplete, or disconnected from the immediate needs of Nigerians. Policies like subsidy removal and naira float have caused significant hardship, with inflation and poverty worsening (63% of Nigerians live in multidimensional poverty). Programs like NELFUND, CrediCorp, and 3MTT are underfunded or poorly implemented, benefiting only a small fraction of the population. Infrastructure and digital initiatives remain urban-centric or aspirational, while rural inclusivity is minimal. Claims like “eliminating ASUU strikes” or “paying off IMF debts” lack evidence, and political achievements (e.g., APC desirability) are irrelevant to public welfare. The administration’s focus on macroeconomic reforms has not translated into tangible benefits for most Nigerians, who face soaring costs, unemployment, and insecurity. Transparent tracking and institutional reforms are needed to ensure policies deliver meaningful impact. |
7. Youths Empowerment (3MTT, SkilledUp Artisan, etc.) Claim: The 3 Million Technical Talent (3MTT) program and others aim to train youths in digital and technical skills. Debunk/Analysis: The 3MTT program targets 3 million youths by 2027, but its rollout is slow, with only a fraction trained by 2025. Limited internet access in rural areas and high training costs exclude many. The SkilledUp Artisan program lacks clear data on job creation or impact. Youth unemployment remains high (~40%), and these initiatives are seen as tokenistic compared to the scale of the problem. Relevance to Nigerians: Minimally relevant, as the programs are underfunded and reach few youths. 8. Introduce CNG to Cut Fuel Prices by 80% Claim: Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) reduces fuel costs by 80%. Debunk/Analysis: The CNG initiative aims to lower transportation costs, with ₦100 billion allocated for 3,000 CNG buses. However, adoption is slow due to limited refueling infrastructure and high conversion costs for vehicles. Fuel prices remain high (petrol ~₦1,000/liter), and the promised 80% cost reduction is unrealistic for most Nigerians, who still rely on petrol. The initiative’s benefits are largely aspirational. Relevance to Nigerians: Irrelevant for now, as CNG infrastructure is underdeveloped and inaccessible. 9. Double FAACs Claim: Federation Account Allocation Committee (FAAC) disbursements doubled, boosting state revenues. Debunk/Analysis:[b] FAAC allocations increased from ~₦9 billion to ~₦1.6 trillion monthly due to subsidy removal and naira devaluation. However, inflation has eroded the real value of these funds, and states often misallocate them to recurrent expenditures rather than development. Ordinary Nigerians see little improvement in services or infrastructure, as corruption and mismanagement persist. Relevance to Nigerians: Limited relevance, as increased allocations have not translated into better living conditions. 10. Double Oil Production Claim: Oil production increased to 1.61 million barrels per day. Debunk/Analysis:[b] Production rose to ~1.6 million bpd, but this is below Nigeria’s OPEC quota of 1.8 million bpd and far from the 2.5 million bpd peak in the 2000s. Oil theft and underinvestment in refineries persist, and Nigeria still imports refined fuel, negating revenue gains. The benefits accrue to elites and foreign companies, not ordinary Nigerians. Relevance to Nigerians: Irrelevant, as increased production has not lowered fuel prices or improved living standards. |
4. Introduce CrediCorp Credit Facilities for Workers Claim: The Consumer Credit Corporation (CrediCorp) provides over ₦200 billion for workers to access essential goods without immediate cash payments. Debunk/Analysis: CrediCorp aims to ease financial burdens, but its implementation is unclear, with minimal evidence of widespread access. The program’s scale is insufficient for Nigeria’s 80 million-plus workforce, and high inflation (34%+) erodes the real value of credit. Workers face repayment challenges amid stagnant wages, and the program’s benefits are skewed toward urban, formal-sector employees, excluding the majority in informal sectors. Relevance to Nigerians: Marginally relevant, as it excludes most workers and fails to address core economic pressures. 5. LG Autonomy Claim: Granting autonomy to local governments enhances grassroots governance. Debunk/Analysis: The Supreme Court’s 2024 ruling on local government autonomy aimed to ensure direct funding to LGAs, bypassing state governors. However, implementation faces resistance from states, and many LGAs lack the capacity to manage funds effectively due to corruption and weak institutions. There’s little evidence of improved service delivery at the local level, and rural communities continue to lack basic amenities like water and roads. The policy’s impact remains theoretical for most Nigerians. Relevance to Nigerians: Largely irrelevant, as it has not yet translated into tangible improvements in local governance or services. 6. Rail/Road Infrastructures Claim: Major infrastructure projects, like the Lagos-Calabar and Sokoto-Badagry highways, are progressing. Debunk/Analysis: While projects like the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway are touted, progress is slow, with funding constraints and delays hampering completion. The ₦3 billion allocated for the eastern rail corridor is part of a $21 billion borrowing plan, raising concerns about debt sustainability. Most Nigerians, especially in rural areas, see no immediate benefits from these projects, as existing roads remain deplorable, and rail access is limited. Limited relevance, as projects are incomplete and inaccessible to most. |
Debunking Tinubu’s Government Claimed Achievements: A Critical Look at Their Impact on Nigerians 1. Removed Subsidy Claim: The removal of the fuel subsidy saved Nigeria over ₦1 trillion in two months and redirected funds to infrastructure and social services. Debunk/Analysis: While the subsidy removal in May 2023 was intended to curb fiscal waste, it led to a tripling of petrol prices (from ~₦190 to ~₦550 per liter initially, and later exceeding ₦1,000 in some areas), causing a sharp rise in transportation and living costs. Inflation surged to a 30-year high of 34.19% by June 2024, pushing millions deeper into poverty. The promised reinvestment of savings into infrastructure, education, and healthcare has lacked transparency, with no clear evidence of how funds have been utilized. Reports indicate the government reinstated implicit subsidies in 2024, costing ₦6.884 trillion, negating the fiscal savings narrative. For ordinary Nigerians, the immediate impact has been economic hardship, with minimal tangible benefits from the supposed savings. Relevance to Nigerians: Irrelevant for most, as the policy exacerbated poverty without visible compensatory measures. 2. Float Naira Claim: Floating the naira unified exchange rates, fostering transparency and attracting foreign investment. Debunk/Analysis: The naira’s float led to a depreciation of over 70%, with the currency dropping from ~₦460/$ in May 2023 to over ₦1,600/$ by 2025. This caused imported goods’ prices to skyrocket, worsening inflation and eroding purchasing power. Critics argue that Nigeria’s import-dependent economy, with limited export diversification, was unprepared for a free float, leading to economic instability akin to Zimbabwe or Venezuela. Foreign investment increased marginally (from $22 million in Q1 2023 to $191 million in Q1 2024), but this is negligible compared to the economic fallout. The policy primarily benefited speculators and elites with access to dollars, while ordinary Nigerians faced higher costs for essentials. Relevance to Nigerians: Largely irrelevant, as it worsened living standards without delivering promised economic stability. 3. Introduce NELFund Students Loan Claim: The National Education Loan Fund (NELFUND) supports students from less privileged backgrounds. Debunk/Analysis: NELFUND, established via the Student Loans Act of April 2024, disbursed over ₦95.6 billion to students. However, its rollout has been slow, with bureaucratic hurdles and limited awareness limiting access. Many eligible students, especially in rural areas, struggle to apply due to digital barriers and stringent requirements. The program benefits a small fraction of Nigeria’s student population, while rising tuition fees and economic hardship force many to drop out, undermining its impact. Relevance to Nigerians: Limited relevance, as it reaches only a small subset of students and does not address broader educational access issues. |
