Tinubu Declares He’s ‘Ready for Governance’ After Three Years, ADC Strikes Back

With the 2027 elections drawing near, President Bola Tinubu has launched fresh attacks on the opposition, singling out the ADC. He declared, “I am inspired. I am ready. This is an opportunity of a lifetime to break poverty and ignorance.” Critics say his “inspiration” seems aimed more at rallying political support than helping Nigerians. And why claim readiness after three years? Many feel this push should have come at the start of his term, not on the eve of elections. Global agencies like the World Bank warn that poverty is rising. Under the previous administration, poverty levels were lower—an inconvenient comparison for the presidency. Tinubu also vowed to protect democracy but cautioned against “noise-making” and “rascality,” a clear jab at the ADC. Yet true democracy is meant to be lively. Opposition voices are the system’s safeguard.
