Tinubu Since 2023: Have His Reforms Improved Life for Ordinary Nigerians?

President Bola Tinubu’s administration can point to major reforms since taking office in May 2023. These include petrol subsidy removal, foreign-exchange market changes, higher federation revenue, the student loan scheme, road projects, domestic refining, electricity reforms and housing programmes. The government says these policies have strengthened public finances, improved foreign reserves, expanded access to higher education financing and supported infrastructure development. It also says more local refining and power-sector reforms could reduce long-term pressure on businesses and households. However, the reforms have come with severe economic pain. Higher fuel prices, naira depreciation, rising food and transport costs, insecurity and weaker household purchasing power remain major concerns for many Nigerians. As the 2027 election approaches, the central debate is whether the administration’s reforms and projects have delivered enough real improvement in everyday life to justify another term.
