Nigeria: Tinubu - A Critical Second Half

  • Afenifere, a pan-Yoruba socio-political group, released a midterm assessment criticizing worsening economic hardship under President Bola Tinubu's 24-month administration in Nigeria.
  • The group linked hardship to ill-planned removal of fuel subsidies, floating the naira, and selective salary increases benefiting only about 4.1% of the population.
  • Afenifere condemned government spending on luxury items and corruption in palliative distribution, describing the period as one of "unmitigated suffering" and citizens’ hunger as undeniable.
  • Despite these criticisms, official data show Nigeria's GDP grew 3.84% in Q4 2024, driven by the services sector, with the World Bank forecasting 3.3% growth in 2025 amid ongoing structural reforms.
  • The group urged urgent, empathetic government action to address widespread hardship and insecurity, warning that without selfless leadership Nigeria’s challenges may deepen despite some economic gains.
