'No More Lies': Tinubu's 2027 Bid Faces Nigeria's Anger Over Cost of Living | Fi
Watch as Firstpost examines the unfolding political battle in Nigeria, as President Bola Tinubu officially launches his bid for a second term in the 2027 presidential election. Speaking to crowds at Ranchers Bees Stadium in Kaduna, the 74-year-old leader defended his aggressive economic reforms—including scrapping the petrol subsidy, overhauling tax policies, and floating the naira—promising a "better tomorrow." However, millions of Nigerians face severe microeconomic hardship, with soaring food inflation, rising fuel costs forcing families in Lagos to purchase animal bones instead of meat, and security threats displacing entire communities. As main opposition figures Atiku Abubakar and Peter Obi prepare to challenge the ruling All Progressives Congress, Firstpost unpacks whether voters will grant Tinubu four more years. Alyson Le Grange brings you the story.
