CNPP: Two years into the Tinubu presidency, Nigerians are more burdened, more insecure, and more disillusioned than ever
By Valentine Amanze
Renewed hardship, deepening poverty, and growing insecurity have taken over in Nigeria instead of the much-publicized “Renewed Hope” agenda of the President Bola Tinubu administration.
The Conference of Nigeria Political Parties (CNPP) raised the alarm after a thorough review of the first two years of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu administration.
CNPP, in a statement issued by its
Deputy National Publicity Secretary, Comrade James Ezema, lamented the worsening state of the nation.
“Overall, two years into the Tinubu presidency, Nigerians are more burdened, more insecure, and more disillusioned than ever.
“The promises of renewed hope have not materialized in daily life of ordinary citizens,” it stated.
The CNPP therefore called on President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to realign his leadership with the urgent needs of the Nigerian people.
“We recommend a national policy recalibration, beginning with a cabinet reshuffle to bring in competent, reform-minded professionals into this government.
“The next two years must not be a continuation of policy failure and elite-centered governance,” the group warned.
The CNPP, however, advised the president to open the doors to national dialogue, embrace civil society and opposition voices, and put the people first.

The group also expressed optimism that Nigeria could still be salvaged, lamenting that time was running out.
The CNPP warned that only urgent, sincere, and people-centered action could save the Tinubu administration, stressing, “The days of excuses and self-praise must end.
“The time to govern with empathy, competence, and vision is now and the needless focus on 2027 politics and re-election bids should be stopped immediately for the governments to minimise distractions and face the primary responsibility of ensuring the security and welfare of citizens.”
The CNPP pointed out that Nigerian people deserve no less in the next two years of the Tinubu administration.
