A Nigerian man has sparked outrage on social media after asking citizens to ponder on the country's economic hardships ahead of the 2027 presidential election.
In a viral tweet shared on X, formerly Twitter, the guy chastised Nigerians for complaining about growing living costs while perhaps supporting the current leadership in the upcoming election.
The man cited the high rates of fuel, cooking gas and cement, stating that Nigerians should consider their current economic situation while determining who to support in 2027.
“Nigerians, You Buy Fuel For ₦1,300, You Buy Gas For ₦1,400, You Buy Cement ₦13,000–₦14,000 Per Bag. Then On Election Day, You Get To Your Polling Unit And Decide It’s Tinubu You Want To Vote For.
“That Means The Juju That Was Used On You, Even a Spiritual Father Won’t Be Able To Deliver You. If The Suffering We Have Endured In The Past 3 Years Doesn’t Hit You Hard, And You Don’t Hold Your PVC Like Your Life Depends On It, That Means Your Problem Is Bigger Than Me.”
Reactions to the tweet were divided; some people supported President Bola Tinubu's economic initiatives, while others shared his worries.
Nigerians respond to a post that went viral
Nonchalant7, one user, expressed disapproval of the discussion's trajectory by writing:
“If u put a rotten fruit among good ones the rotten fruit go spoil the good ones. It’s best to take out the rotten fruit and destroy it or throw it away. This information is not about rotten fruit.”
Another user, Barcuit, argued that Nigerians had forgotten the economic challenges associated with previous administrations.
“I remembered when they print to top up money to pay allocations and still borrow to subsidise fuel and defend Naira..werey people don forget ..him for don leave the subsidy so Una go Dey cry now.”
Emma_Nuel also recalled a conversation about the impact of fuel subsidy removal.
