Social media commentator VeryDarkMan has strongly criticized the administration of President Bola Tinubu over the continuous increase in fuel prices across the country.
Reacting to reports that petrol prices have risen above N1,000 per litre in some areas, the influencer described the president as “the worst thing that has ever happened to Nigeria.”
According to him, the removal of fuel subsidy has worsened the economic situation in the country.
He said:
“Fuel price hits over 1000 naira per litre. President Bola Tinubu is the worst thing that has ever happened to Nigeria.
They lied, they stole, and they want to continue stealing. President Tinubu is a failure. At the point where you took us from, it was much better than this.”
VeryDarkMan also referred to comments he said he made in early 2023, claiming he had warned about the possible consequences of the subsidy removal policy.
“Now imagine a place where Bola Ahmed Tinubu picks everybody from… imagine where we dey today. I said it then that this subsidy thing, they were actually looking for the best means to steal.
It was even better when they were paying for the subsidy; at least there was a budget of money meant for the benefit of Nigerians.”
He further raised concerns about the state of the education sector, alleging that several students awarded scholarships under the current administration are stranded abroad.
“Till tomorrow we still dey cry say our public schools are failing the children. They give scholarship in President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s regime, plenty of them dey for Morocco stranded dey cry.
Education sector don fall, everything they collected money for e don fall. So where is the money for the subsidy that they removed? This is the most corrupt government in the history of Nigerian government.”
VeryDarkMan also warned that certain government actions, including possible internet shutdowns, could expose deeper issues in the country.
“Everything I said has come to pass. When people doubt me, look at it now. Na the same go shut down internet, na that time Nigerians go know say problem dey wey you no dey see.”
