Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, has referred to President Bola Tinubu by the nickname given to him by Nigerians on social media, T-Pain.
T-Pain is the name of an American rapper. It was given to Tinubu by netizens due to the hardship his economic policies have caused.
In a post on his X handle @atiku, the former Vice President who was the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential candidate in the 2023 election, lamented that T-Pain (Tinubu) by the hardship his policies have caused.
The post reads: “The haphazard and disingenuous approach of the current administration to fuel subsidy management has been the reason we are in this current economic crisis in the country.
“As things stand, there will be no let up in the escalating inflation rate, which is drowning the material well-being of Nigerians. It is even more worrying that T-pain is undisturbed by the hardship in the country.”
