The Forum of South-East Academic Doctors (FOSAD) has delivered a scathing assessment of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s administration, labeling his two-year term in office a “colossal failure cloaked in propaganda.”
In a strongly worded statement, FOSAD leaders Dr. Stephen Nwala and Dr. Uzor Ngoladi criticized the President’s May 29 anniversary speech, saying it was “disconnected from reality” and “an insult to the intelligence of suffering Nigerians.”
FOSAD highlighted seven key areas where the Tinubu administration has fallen short:
Rising insecurity across the nation, with Nigerians living in fear, Skyrocketing inflation, making basic necessities unaffordable for many families, Persistent blackouts, a fragile national grid,
and tariff hikes deepening poverty,
Abandonment of the education sector, controversies surrounding JAMB and WAEC, and a student loan scheme that excludes the poor and Prioritization of vanity projects over critical infrastructure
FOSAD urged civil society, labour unions, student groups, and ordinary Nigerians to speak out against the “deepening national decay.” The group called for a shift in governance from propaganda to people-oriented policies, stating, “Nigeria is not working. The hardship is real. The suffering is national. President Tinubu must wake up to the sobering truth: his government, two years on, is a colossal failure.”
FOSAD’s statement adds to the growing chorus of dissent from opposition voices and civil society groups, questioning the Tinubu administration’s ability to deliver on its promises. While the Presidency has yet to respond, the statement reflects the widening gap between the administration’s claims and the harsh realities faced by many Nigerians.
