Why Tinubu must go in 2027
Let’s start from the education sector — that graveyard of abandoned dreams. For the first time in living memory, public universities have stayed open for two full academic years. Not one single ASUU strike. I mean, what kind of Nigerian president does that? How dare he keep students in class, giving them a reason to hope again? Doesn’t he know idleness is the only thing that keeps some political careers alive?

Oh, and to make things worse, he’s even putting money directly in students’ pockets. Poor students, of all people! Instead of sending that money through some shady “youth empowerment initiative” where it disappears faster than light, he chose the direct route. The audacity!

Now to power. Nigeria has been in a toxic relationship with darkness for decades. But Tinubu, in just two years, had the nerve to add 1,500MW to the national grid. 1,500! Who told him we wanted to leave the Stone Age? Rural communities are now glowing with electricity, and 22 federal universities are already hooked up to solar. The guy clearly doesn’t respect our commitment to suffering.

And then the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway — a project other leaders ran from like a plague. But Tinubu? He picked it up like it was some overdue homework, brushing off the noise and laying the groundwork for a trillion-naira economic revolution. Now, nine states are on track to be connected by a modern superhighway that will unlock trillions in commerce, tourism, and regional pride. That one project alone is enough to give some old politicians sleepless nights.

Now, can we give it up for our Super Falcons? Not just for winning the Women’s African Cup of Nations — because they always bring the heat — but for receiving the most grand reception ever from this administration. Yes, Tinubu rolled out the red carpet, celebrated their excellence, and reminded our youth that Nigeria still rewards greatness. Shame on him for encouraging patriotism and hard work.

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has approved a nationwide grassroots-focused initiative aimed at combating poverty and stimulating economic growth across Nigeria’s 8,809 political wards.

The new initiative, titled the Renewed Hope Ward Development Programme (RHWDP), was formally adopted on Thursday during the 150th meeting of the National Economic Council (NEC) held at the State House, Abuja.

Conceived as a core component of Tinubu’s broader Renewed Hope Agenda, which targets a $1 trillion economy by 2030, the RHWDP seeks to strengthen rural development through coordinated interventions in poverty alleviation, food security, infrastructure, energy access, and job creation.

Addressing state governors at the meeting, President Tinubu called for urgent action to uplift citizens at the grassroots level.

“Let us change the story of our people in the rural areas,” he said. “The economy is working. We are on the path of recovery, but we need to stimulate growth in the rural areas.”

Under the new strategy, each ward will host a minimum of 1,000 to 2,000 economic activities depending on its size. The programme will be supervised by a National Steering Committee, with the Ministry of Budget and Economic Planning serving as its secretariat.

Minister of Budget and Economic Planning, Abubakar Atiku Bagudu, who presented the programme to the Council, emphasised that implementation would involve collaboration among all three tiers of government.
