Tinubu’s N68 Trillion Budget vs Buhari’s N21 Trillion: Where Did the Subsidy Savings Go?

I’m puzzled how Tinubu’s 2026 budget of N68.32 trillion—over three times Buhari’s N21.83 trillion 2022 budget—will work without fuel subsidy. Buhari managed an election year and subsidy with a far smaller budget, yet Tinubu promised savings to cut spending. No one can account for where those subsidy funds went. I believe true progress demands a revolution to dismantle this political system. We need radical decentralization, or even disintegration, of structures inherited from colonial rule. Until Nigerians take this stand, corruption will deepen and ordinary citizens will keep bearing the cost.
