APC led government and its careless, extravagant spending of public resources without purpose needs to be cautioned.
Nigeria and Nigerians will continue to pay the price of high cost of Governance until government gets his priorities straight and right.
The president has refused to match his call for austerity with his continued waste of public funds” the work of the president is not to be globetrotting or make France his second home but to stay in Nigeria and make it work for the benefit of our people because as at June 2024, Tinubu and his Vice President Shettima has spent N8.64bn on travel expenses within three months.
The President will be travelling to France in the “state of the art” jet tomorrow Nigerians bear the harsh realities of the lavish lifestyle of I don’t care and incompetent leadership.
The A330 with new registration number 5N-NGA was purchased for $100m and retrofitted with all sorts of gadgets with another $50m.
Tinubu spent N5 billion worth on a yacht and budgets N7bn For Renovating President, Vice Official Residences In Lagos while citizens are suffering.
Nigeria as a Nation is facing crises, worse than anytime in its history, every thing is in disarray, our President says we should exercise patience even when we are hungry, we should be patient even when our children are out of school yet Bola Ahmed Tinubu chooses this very time to purchase a brand new Cardilac Escalade as a Presidential Car, a car worth overlooking almost 500m Naira, how insensitive and Selfish can a “Leader be”?, note: past Presidents used Mercedes Maybach S Class but no it ain’t good enough for Bola Tinubu.
- He wants Workers to be patient and manage 70k.
- He wants lecturers (Academic Staff Union of Universities ASUU) be patient while ASUU Begs FG To Save Public Varsities From Total Collapse.
- He wants ordinary citizens to tighten their belts and be patient while his Government continues with wasteful spending of public resources
- our health care system is in shambles and nothing to write home about.
- our Federal roads are in total state of decay and disrepair.
- Fuel prices keep rising, #800 per liter as at yesterday, making transport fare almost impossible to afford.
Those in government and their perchant for luxury at the expense of the collective wellbeing of the poor is alarming and dangerous.
