Debunking Tinubu’s “Dilapidated Nigeria” Claim: A Breakdown of Extravagant Spendings

President Tinubu insists he inherited a dilapidated nation. Yet his administration has approved massive budgets for high-cost projects. Here are some major allocations since he took office: • ₦21 billion to renovate the vice-president’s residence • ₦70 billion for SUVs for National Assembly members • ₦7 billion on state house renovations in Lagos • ₦5 billion for a presidential tax reform committee with minimal output • Billions more for cars for the first lady, judges’ salary hikes, a new presidential fleet, yacht, jet maintenance and the 2024 Hajj pilgrimage These figures raise questions about fiscal priorities in an economy facing persistent hardship.

Perhaps reallocating a portion of those funds toward road repairs and healthcare clinics could deliver more tangible improvements.
