Petrol and cooking gas prices have decreased this week and are set for further reductions next week. Am I lying? Of course not! You can fact-check me. You know it is true. But you did not praise President Tinubu. Yet, if the reverse happens and they increase, you will be the first to criticise the President.
Also, the International Institute for Management Development World Competitiveness Ranking 2026 listed Nigeria as the best-performing economy in Africa bar none. Again, you did not celebrate President Tinubu. But God forbid that the IMD ranked us as the worst-performing economy in Africa, you would have broken the Internet.
Look, many good things are happening in Nigeria under His Excellency, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, President and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. The challenge is that you have confirmation bias against Nigeria and prefer to seek out negative information about your country.

That is why you, who are either in school or have a brother, sister, or cousin attending a university, fail to give credit to President Tinubu for providing Nigeria with a strike-free academic calendar for three years for the first time.
While you were mocking the First Lady’s Akara economy, she has quietly empowered tens of thousands of women to fry Akara, roast corn, and process garri. She is a visionary who knows that it is better to be busy doing something small than to be jobless and talking about something big.
An Iya Alakara is better than an Iya Gbeborun!
Nigeria is making astronomical progress. Take off your glasses of negativity so you can see it.
