A Nigerian lady has sparked reactions online after criticising citizens who continue to support President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and the All Progressives Congress (APC) despite the economic hardship facing millions of Nigerians.
In a strongly worded statement, the lady described Nigerians who support the current administration simply because they can afford basic necessities such as food, fuel and electricity as insensitive to the struggles of less privileged citizens.
She argued that being financially comfortable should not make anyone overlook the difficulties faced by people living below the poverty line, stressing that millions of Nigerians are still struggling to meet their daily needs.
According to her, those who believe the country is doing well because they can comfortably afford their personal expenses should visit rural communities and attempt to provide food for struggling families for three months.
She challenged APC supporters to experience the realities of poverty firsthand, suggesting that such an experience would make them understand the level of suffering many Nigerians are going through.
In her words, “You set of Nigerians supporting Tinubu just because you can afford your own food, fuel and electricity are the most useless set of Nigerians.”
She further accused some government supporters of living in a bubble and acting as though everyone else could survive without assistance simply because they were financially comfortable.
The lady also blamed the Tinubu administration for the country’s economic challenges, pointing to high inflation and the difficulties confronting ordinary citizens.
She concluded by urging Nigerians who are financially comfortable to acknowledge the struggles of others rather than dismissing concerns about the country’s economic situation.
Her comments have added to the ongoing public debate over the Tinubu administration’s economic policies and the growing concerns about the cost of living in Nigeria.
