Sowore Claims Nigerians Trust Politicians with Big Tummies More Than Flat Ones
Omoyele Sowore, the 2023 presidential candidate for the African Action Congress (AAC), has made an unusual claim about the way Nigerians view their politicians.
Sowore argued that the public’s trust in politicians has now become linked to their physical appearance, particularly the size of their stomachs.
According to Sowore, Nigerians no longer trust politicians with flat stomachs, citing the poor performance of former president Muhammadu Buhari as the reason.
He explained that Buhari’s flat tummy became a symbol of his leadership style, which many viewed as ineffective. Sowore even mentioned that this shift in perception influenced his own decision to adopt a more protruding belly.
In an interview on the ‘Curiosity Made Me Ask’ show, hosted by content creator Bae U Barbie, Sowore explained, “I used to have a flat tummy up until 2018. But I realized that people with flat tummies are no longer trusted.
The way Buhari used his flat tummy to deceive Nigerians made me decide to start growing my tummy. It’s getting there.”
“It looks like Nigerians aren’t going to vote for anyone with a flat tummy anytime soon,” he added.
It has been reported that a Nigerian won the 2026 Spelling Bee World Championship, which was held in Shanghai, China. The winner, Chinedu Great Okdediachi, has now returned home to Delta State after his victory.
It can be noted that the student had already emerged as one of the Gold Award winners in the Middle School Group category.
“Congratulations once again, Chinedu! Your success continues to inspire young Nigerians to pursue excellence through education. Welcome home, Champion!”
The young star has made Nigeria proud by winning the international competition.
President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has stated that his administration’s economic reforms have helped stabilise Nigeria’s economy and placed the country on a path toward steady growth.
He said “My reforms have stabilised Nigeria’s economy and put it on a path of steady growth.”
The President added that the reforms are creating more opportunities for development across the country.
However, many Nigerians reacted online, with some questioning the impact of the reforms and saying they have yet to experience the positive effects.
Nigerian politician and FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike, has said that he is aware many civil servants do not like him.
He shared that he understands why he is unpopular among some civil servants, explaining that funds previously spent on unnecessary conferences are now being redirected to road construction projects.
He said “Some people say conferences for corruption and I say what is that? You are going for conferences to do what? These are ways government funds are being diverted. I say put this money in this road here and the people will get the impact.”
