Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has reacted after he was asked whether President Bola Tinubu deserves a second term in office to see his policies through and consolidate on their gains, questioning the impact of the administration’s economic policies on Nigerians.
According to a repor by DAILY INDEPENDENT on Thursday, October 22, 2026, Obasanjo challenged the premise of the question, asking what policies Tinubu intended to continue when, according to him, Nigerians were becoming poorer under the current administration.
The former president criticised the impact of the naira’s depreciation on the purchasing power of Nigerians, arguing that the country’s economic situation should be considered before discussing whether Tinubu deserves another term.
