2027: Tinubu’s online critics are paid, says Akpabio

The Senate President of Nigeria, Godswill Akpabio, has claimed that social media critics of President Bola Tinubu and his supporters are being paid. Akpabio made this allegation during a meeting with the Arewa Revival Project, a northern youth group, to receive an award for his contributions to nation-building. The group, consisting of members from 19 northern states, presented the award in recognition of the Senate President's efforts.

Akpabio urged the young people to engage in grassroots mobilisation for Tinubu's re-election in 2027, stating that social media propaganda aimed at destabilising the government was not beneficial. He also defended the President's economic policies, emphasizing the diversification of the economy and innovations introduced through tax reforms.

Akpabio expressed pride in Nigeria's development under the current administration and appealed for Nigerians to appreciate the benefits of continuity in government.
