Hunger and the Insensitivity of Mr. President

I watched with deep concern the statement made by President Bola Tinubu to the Catholic Bishops who visited his office, that there has always been hunger in Nigeria, even before he was born.

While it is true that hunger has been a part of human life and has existed in our country for decades, such a statement appears insensitive to the plight of the millions of Nigerians who face worsening economic hardship today. More importantly, we must focus on the facts and the measurable outcomes of governance.

Before the present administration assumed office in 2023, an estimated 17 million Nigerians were facing acute food insecurity, primarily caused by insecurity, armed conflict, widespread banditry, and devastating floods. Today, less than three years later, that number has risen to about 35 million Nigerians. Instead of improving the situation, the crisis has worsened significantly under the current administration.

The same trend is evident in poverty. Before this government took office in 2023, Nigeria’s extreme poverty was estimated at 87 million people. Current projections suggest that this number is approaching 140 million people, making Nigeria home to the largest population of people living in extreme poverty anywhere in the world.

No one disputes that this administration inherited serious challenges. However, leadership is measured not by the challenges inherited but by the results achieved. The government must honestly acknowledge that its response has fallen far short of what the situation demanded, with millions more Nigerians pushed deeper into poverty and hunger.

The combination of persistent insecurity, poor economic management, fiscal indiscipline, wasteful public expenditure, and inadequate investment in productive sectors has compounded the suffering of ordinary Nigerians.

A responsible government must prioritise investment in education, healthcare, agriculture, security, and small businesses while pursuing policies that create jobs, expand production, and lift people out of poverty. That remains my commitment to the Nigerian people.

A New Nigeria is Possible. PO

The tragedy of Nigeria is that it has failed to place the likes of you in charge of our educational systems..

[Alex Onyia @winexviv]

There is no country on earth where a child will be sent to prison because they scored an F in an exam.

But every day, people lose their freedom, destroy their futures, or even lose their lives because of poor character, lack of discipline, greed, dishonesty, or violence.

Yet many parents panic over grades and ignore character.

If your child leaves school with integrity, discipline, empathy, resilience, and the ability to do the right thing even when nobody is watching, you’ve already won.

Academics can open doors.

Character determines what happens after those doors open.

The greatest product of any school should not be straight A’s.

It should be responsible human beings.

What’s your view?

[Alex Onyia @winexviv]

I find it strange that every few years, some Africans argue about whether their own native language is “useful.”

A language is not valuable because it gets you a job.

A language is valuable because it carries the memory of a people.

English connects you to the world but your mother tongue connects you to your identity, your history, your grandparents, your culture, and a way of thinking that cannot be fully translated.

The future belongs to people who can preserve who they are while engaging the world.

The real advantage is raising a child who can think, dream, and express themselves fluently in their local language, while also communicating confidently in English and other global languages.

I want to be fair to @PeterPsquare . He is not wrong that French opens doors Igbo does not. He is not wrong that parents get to decide how they raise their own children. But I guess he underestimates the fact that he is not just any parent. P-Square is a name millions of Igbo people grew up admiring, their success made them proud to be who they are. People all over the world sang their songs using Igbo words. So when a voice like that says Igbo is not worth passing on, it does not land like one man’s private choice. It gives permission for a belief a lot of people were already quietly carrying, that English and French, in short anything foreign, sits above Igbo, that their native language is something to graduate out of rather than something to hold onto.

I am not Igbo. I am Swiss. But my husband made it clear from the beginning that our children would speak Igbo, and I have never once seen that as a burden or a complication. Our children speak Swiss German, English, and Igbo at home, German at school, and now French as well, since that is part of their school curriculum too. Five languages, and none of them fighting each other for space. That is the part people forget when they frame this as a choice. Children do not need to pick one language to be strong in. They can navigate several at once, easily.

It is adults who turn language into a competition. Children just absorb what is spoken to them and grow fluent in all of it.

A language is not only a tool for getting ahead. It is also a rooting tool, the place where love, memory, and belonging live. It is the specific way a grandmother scolds you and forgives you in the same breath. It is a joke that only works in the original. Lose the language, and you do not just lose a skill. You lose a room in your own house, one you can still visit as a guest but never quite live in again. That is what worries me most in this conversation. A child who cannot speak their father’s or mother’s language will, at some point, stand in that homeland and feel like a stranger. Not unwelcome, not unloved, just outside something that was supposed to be theirs by birth.

One day, my sons will be handed a kola nut, and in that moment, no one should have to do it for them. They should know how to receive it, how to speak over it, how to break it themselves, not pass it along to someone else because they never learned the words or the meaning behind them. That is such a small moment, and yet it says everything. It is the difference between being someone’s guest and being someone’s own.
So when I hear “Igbo is useless,” what I actually hear is a wound that has not healed.

From the outside, I have watched how often English or French get treated as the languages worth keeping, while Igbo gets treated as the one you can afford to let go of. That preference did not come from nowhere. It is a colonial hierarchy that convinced generations of people that closeness to their own culture was a limitation rather than a foundation. I don’t say this to shame anyone, least of all a man raising his own family the best way he knows how. I say it because the people who shape how we see ourselves carry a weight beyond their own households, whether they asked for it or not.

My hope is simple. That we stop treating our children’s languages as a competition with only one winner. That we let them have both the world and their roots, and trust that they are capable of holding both without ever having to choose.

NA STATISTICS WE GO CHOP?

Calvary greetings my dear brother Olusegun,

I am surprised that after the statement from Tchief Tinubu on 25 November 2022 during his presidential campaign rally in Delta State, cackling “na statistics we go chop” our very handsome president has now promoted himself from hating statistics to manufacturing them.
What he cannot forge does not exist

Since the numbers refused to favour his administration, he has now hired a graphics designer (possibly from the same shop that printed his certificate), and has gone ahead to stamp “FULFILLED” to deceive himself. At least in this government, if reality no gree, Canva go cooperate.

Everyone in APC now “celebrate” statistics but nobody in that party seems to be able to differentiate between a law, a conference, and an actual implementation or accomplishment.

So as usual, LET ME EDUCATE YOU.

1. When did you fulfill the FX reform?
Is there not still persistent volatility?
Has the reform produced a credible foreign exchange market? The naira lost a large share of its value. Businesses struggled to access foreign exchange.
Under this govt, naira has experienced an over 200% depreciation.
$460 when you came, $1600 today.

2. Your administration listing Fiscal discipline and deficit mgt as fulfilled is laughable. Under Tinubu our debt japad from ₦87.4 trn to ₦159.28trn in 18 months, borrowing 4x faster than Buhari, who was already Nigeria's biggest borrower ever. Tinubu is the largest and fastest borrower amongst our last 3 presidents combined. 16 years from Yaradua to Buhari was ₦84trn, just 3 years of Tinubu is ₦72trn as at December.

Also what is our Debt to GDP value? Debt servicing is consuming the largest chunk of government revenue, Interest payments remain high and Fiscal pressure has increased.
We don’t even have a budget, Tinubu has not published a budget report since 2024 but here he is with Oluwole graphics claiming fulfilled.

3. The only foreign investment Tinubu has fulfilled is taking himself to foreign countries. Tinubu has spent over 344 days out of the country since he became President.
Not a single investment announcements under Tinubu has translated into job creation or measurable productivity growth. Just pieces of papers and media propaganda.

4. What is CREDICORP? How many customers right now can access the credit?
Where can I walk in today and easily obtain affordable consumer credit? You people are jokers.

5. Tax Reforms Act, please don’t get me started…
Is this the same Tax Reform Act that sparked outrage over allegations that the gazetted version was different from what lawmakers approved? The same tax reform that was confirmed to the whole nation that was forged. Is that what APC just celebrated as an achievement 😂…Ehhhh nitori olorun

6. What is the achievement in crude oil production? Why hasn’t it translated into lower fuel costs? How much was fuel when Tinubu came to power and how much is it today?
Mr. Subsidy is gone 😭

7. Has electricity become reliable? What has the Tinubu’s govt done with Electricity in Nigeria? From Band A to bandits because we are all operating in the dark.
The existence of legislation is different from improved electricity supply.

Nigeria's national grid has collapsed at least 20 times under Tinubu
What is his achievement in electricity?
Don’t forget he said: If I don’t give you CONSTANT electricity for 4 years don’t vote for me. Where is the electricity @officialABAT

8. None of the PIA has been fully implemented. Another immeasurable fallacy.

9. Fuel Subsidy 😭
Tinubuuuuuuu @officialABAT how did you even include this as an achievement? Where is the money Nigeria saved from subsidy? Why are we still borrowing?
This was an economical lifelong injury.
Inflation increased, transportation increased, food costs increased
You failed, this is the biggest implementation failure.

F9 in economics, C in graphics designing😭.
I’m sleepy and out of twitter characters, just wait let me wake up💁🏼‍♀️

Seun: Kwankwaso is a big asset to you, and you believe that he can help you win the election.

Peter Obi: Don't say Kwankwaso is an asset to me; he's an asset to Nigeria. He believes in education and in pulling people out of poverty; that's why Nigeria needs both of us.

WISDOM!
