President Bola Tinubu has admitted that Nigeria’s restless youth population could vote him out of office if he fails to fix the economy.
Speaking at the Africa CEO Forum on Thursday, Tinubu acknowledged that young Nigerians no longer accept excuses for poor governance.
He said his administration is working hard to create jobs and stabilise the economy, but warned that the youth are demanding results and will not tolerate failure.
The President’s remarks come amid widespread hardship and soaring inflation that have pushed many Nigerians to the brink.
Critics argue that while Tinubu speaks boldly, his policies have yet to yield tangible relief for the masses.
The statement is seen as an attempt to rally support ahead of the 2027 elections, but many doubt his ability to deliver on promises.
Tinubu’s admission has sparked mixed reactions, with some praising his candour while others see it as a desperate plea to avoid electoral defeat.
