What exactly did Jonathan break that Buhari and Tinubu have fixed?
In 10 years (2015 – 2025), after Jonathan handed over, Nigeria has experienced this:
Fuel moved from ₦87 per litre to over ₦1,000. They say we should jubilate because it’s now ₦740 – ₦770!
The cost of 1kg of cooking gas rose from ₦200 to ₦1,500+. They still ask us to clap because it’s now between ₦1,100 – ₦1,300. To use gas for basic cooking is now a luxury.
A bag of rice jumped from ₦8,000 to over ₦100,000. Now, they want us to be very grateful to Mr Tinubu because it currently sells for ₦52,000 – ₦60,000.
A bag of beans moved from ₦20,000 – ₦25,000 to peak at around ₦200,000. Dem say we suppose dey thank Mr. Bola for the new price at ₦120,000 – ₦140,000. Hunger has suddenly become normalised.
Local flight tickets moved from under ₦50,000 to ₦400,000+. Local travel is now a privilege.
A 50cl soft drink moved from ₦100 to ₦400 – ₦550, a small reminder of how everyday life became expensive.
A 5kg bag of semovita climbed from ₦3,000 to ₦8,000 – ₦10,000, proof that staples were not spared.
Minimum wage rose from ₦18,000 to ₦70,000. But before you chuckle, check with their respective purchasing powers.
The naira crashed from ₦160 per dollar to ₦1,500. We should be grateful to Mr. Strategist that it hasn’t reached ₦3,000.
Federal university fees moved from ₦40,000+ to ₦200,000 – ₦300,000+, quietly pushing the poor out of public education.
Your favourite feature phones rose from ₦2,500 to ₦10,000 – ₦20,000, Basic smartphones now cost ₦100,000 – ₦200,000+. You can’t even dare to replace your lost or damaged phone immediately anymore.
Flagship smartphones moved from ₦100,000+ to ₦1.5 million – ₦2.5 million, in a country where minimum wage barely buys food.
Insecurity expanded from Boko Haram to ISIS/ISWAP, banditry, and kidnapping. The news of the killing of colonels and army generals is no more a shock to anyone.
Federal appointments shifted from nominating the living to nominating the dead, even long after they are dead!
People of God, what specifically did Jonathan destroy that the duo of Buhari and Tinubu have restored?
Economy? National Dignity? Security? Education? Welfare? Infrastructure? National Assets?
