ADC Slams Tinubu Over Failure To Appoint Ambassadors

ADC Wishes President Bola Tinubu A Happy Birthday

Happy Birthday, Mr. President. As you mark another year, Nigerians reflect on a presidency whose impact is now impossible to ignore.

Under your watch, fuel prices have risen by nearly 500%, turning basic transportation into a daily calculation of survival.

Under your leadership, Nigeria has climbed to 4th on the Global Terrorism Index, while thousands of lives have been lost to violence, families shattered, and communities displaced. Every hour, a Nigerian is killed by insurgents.

Under your presidency, insecurity has not just persisted, it has adapted, expanded, and, at times, been met with language that blurs accountability, where those who terrorize Nigerians are referred to as “sons” and “brothers,” even as their victims bury loved ones.

Under your leadership, the economic strain on Nigerians has deepened, the cost of living has surged, and the ‘Renewed Hope’ that you promised has turned to hopelessness for millions of Nigerian families.

And under your watch, the political space is narrowing, raising real concerns about the steady drift toward a one-party state, in a democracy that was fought for with blood, sweat and tears.

But birthdays are for reflection.

ADC Slams Tinubu Over Failure To Appoint Ambassadors

ADC, Tinubu

So as you celebrate your final year in office, Nigerians can only offer a prayer, that this next year brings a sudden and unfamiliar miracle: that you begin to take governance more seriously; that you finally see the loss of lives under your watch as a failure of your leadership; and that you begin, at the very least, to act with the weight and responsibility of leading the world’s most populous Black nation.

Wishing you good health, improved judgment, and a sense of responsibility to the people you govern.

Happy Birthday, Mr. President!
