“Tinubu and His Lagos Boys Are Living Large While Nigerians Struggle” – Atiku’s Aide

Atiku Abubakar’s Special Assistant on Digital Media Strategy, Demola Olarenwaju, has publicly criticized President Bola Tinubu, alleging that Tinubu and his close allies from Lagos, who are now in power at the Presidential Villa in Abuja, are enjoying a life of luxury at the expense of ordinary Nigerians.
According to Olarenwaju, Tinubu’s administration is operating under the misguided belief that Nigerians will continually tolerate a government that prioritizes its comfort while the average citizen faces daily hardships.
He shared his frustrations on X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter, emphasizing that Tinubu and his circle seem oblivious to the struggles and frustrations that people are enduring across the nation.
In his post, Olarenwaju argued that governing Nigeria as if it were Lagos is a serious misjudgment.
“If you assess T-pain’s impact by observing Lagosians, you might conclude that ‘it isn’t that deep,’ but that’s a flawed perception,” he wrote, explaining that Lagos, with its bustling urban energy and diverse population, does not represent the reality of the rest of Nigeria.
“Lagos is a microcosm of Nigeria, yet it does not mirror the true Nigerian experience,” he continued.
Olarenwaju pointed out that Lagos residents, known for their resilience and strong drive to succeed, have often come from various parts of Nigeria, Africa, and even beyond.
They arrived in Lagos with an entrepreneurial spirit, willing to face the city’s challenges and “double their hustle” rather than openly express their frustrations.
This culture of resilience, he suggested, might lead the president and his allies to underestimate the dissatisfaction that is growing elsewhere in the country.
“The Tinubu government appears dangerously out of touch with the real struggles of Nigerians,” he wrote, stressing that diversity in governance is critical for understanding the wider context of Nigerian lives.
“Tinubu thinks Nigerians will forever put up with his extravagant lifestyle and that of his close group, while they bear the brunt of a tough economy.”
To illustrate the discontent, Olarenwaju referenced a recent incident involving a danfo (public transport) driver in Lagos, who reportedly attempted to set himself and a LASTMA (Lagos State Traffic Management Authority) official on fire after an altercation.
“This speaks volumes about the level of frustration many people feel,” he remarked, adding that when citizens reach their breaking point, they will not need activist Omoyele Sowore to incite them to action—they will mobilize independently.

Atiku’s Aide Rejects Claims of Receiving Money from Lagos State

Paul Ibe, the media aide to former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, has denied reports claiming that Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu of Lagos State, through Ms. Aisha Achimugu, provided Atiku with funds allegedly belonging to Lagos State.i
Ibe described the accusation as completely false and a politically motivated attempt to damage Atiku’s reputation while serving the interests of President Bola Tinubu.
According to Ibe, the real aim behind the allegation is to tarnish Sanwo-Olu’s image and undermine the coalition that opposition leaders, including Atiku, are working to build.
In a statement shared on his X handle on Thursday, Ibe warned that the smear campaign against Atiku must stop immediately.
He stated, “We at the Atiku Media Office have seen reports suggesting that Governor Sanwo-Olu, through Ms. Aisha Achimugu, gave Atiku funds allegedly tied to Lagos State. It’s also being reported that the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) is investigating the matter.
“Let it be clear — this is a baseless and politically driven lie designed to serve Tinubu’s interests. Their plan is simple: take down Sanwo-Olu and weaken the opposition coalition led by Atiku.
“This politically motivated attack on Atiku’s integrity needs to stop immediately.”

Actress Eniola Badmus, who serves as the Special Assistant for Social Events and Public Hearings to the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Tajudeen Abbas, has reaffirmed her support for President Bola Tinubu despite the ongoing economic struggles in the country.

Her statement sparked mixed reactions online, with many Nigerians accusing her of being out of touch with the harsh realities faced by ordinary citizens due to the country’s struggling economy.
One user, Olori_Nini, commented, “This really isn’t the right time to post this. People are struggling and frustrated. It comes off as insensitive. You can support your candidate without making it feel like you’re mocking Nigerians.”
Another user, Oliver_Of_Lagos, said, “Anywhere belle face. Nothing lasts forever. The internet never forgets.”
Hypeman Ruby shared his frustration, saying, “As the breadwinner of my family, this mandate has only made things harder for me. I love you, Baddoskie, but this is tough.”
