Otunba Babatunde Olushola Senbanjo Slams Tinubu Over ‘Empty Promises’, Says Nigerians Are Tired of Propaganda

Otunba Babatunde Olushola Senbanjo (BOS) has strongly criticised President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and the APC-led Federal Government over what he described as another round of empty promises to Nigerians during the President’s recent engagements in Ondo, Cross River, Akwa Ibom and Jigawa States.

BOS said Nigerians had heard countless promises from the administration since 2023, yet the reality of confronting ordinary citizens remained one of hardship, rising costs of living, unemployment, insecurity and declining purchasing power.

“Nigerians should not be carried away by another wave of promises when the administration is already approaching the end of its first term. Nigerians deserve to ask what happened to the promises made at the beginning of this administration and where the tangible results are.”

BOS maintained that governance should not be about making promises during political visits and campaigns while Nigerians continue to struggle with the consequences of economic policies.

“Enough is enough. Nigerians are tired of empty promises and political propaganda. We have heard promises from day one, but promises alone cannot put food on the table, create jobs, reduce the cost of living or secure the lives and property of Nigerians.”

He challenged the APC-led administration to present measurable achievements rather than repeatedly making fresh promises.

BOS further stated that Ondo, Jigawa and every other state in Nigeria deserve genuine development, not political rhetoric. According to him, citizens should judge the government by what it has actually delivered rather than what politicians promise to do.

“A government must be judged by its performance, not its speeches. Nigerians cannot continue to be deceived by promises that are never fulfilled. We need leadership that will work for the people and deliver real results.”

He therefore urged Nigerians to remain vigilant, demand accountability and carefully examine the records of those seeking their votes.

“Nigeria belongs to all of us. The people have the constitutional power to choose who governs them. If an administration has failed to meet the expectations of Nigerians, then Nigerians have every democratic right to demand a better alternative.

“Nigeria needs competent, accountable and people-centred leadership. Nigerians are tired of fake promises; it is time for a new direction. Tinubu must go.”
