With all due respect Mr President, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, Nigerians deserve to know the real reason you have decided not to attend every campaign event ahead of the 2027 presidential election.
You have said that you want to focus on governance, economic responsibilities, and attracting investors, but honestly, this is just an excuse to avoid facing the people.
This is a serious political mistake. A sitting president seeking a second term should be ready to stand before Nigerians, defend his record, explain his achievements, and convince the people why he deserves another four years.
Honestly, I don’t even blame you for staying away. What would you campaign with? Close to four years in office, you have brought Nigerians nothing but pain, hunger, and hardship.
Millions have been pushed into poverty by your economic policies. There is no achievement to point at, no success story to tell. Even your own excuse — ” the American creditors cannot wait ” — is an admission of failure, not a reason to skip your campaign.

If your administration has performed well, why not go out and tell Nigerians what you have achieved? Why not visit different states, listen to the people’s complaints, and explain how you intend to solve their problems?
Deep down, you know the truth. You know that the moment you step before ordinary Nigerians, you will be booed and rejected. That fear, not governance, is the real reason behind this strategy.
You cannot ask Nigerians to give you another four years while refusing to face them at every campaign event. Leadership comes with responsibility, and seeking re-election requires accountability.
Nigerians deserve the opportunity to question you directly about the state of the country.
With all due respect Mr President, If you are confident about your performance, there should be nothing to fear. Come out and defend your record.
Tell Nigerians why they should vote for you again. Let the people judge your performance for themselves.
Mr President, if you are tired of campaigning, Nigerians are equally tired of hardship. If you believe you deserve another four years, prove it to the people. Otherwise, prepare to retire from Aso Rock in 2027.
