President Bola Tinubu stated that a wheelbarrow would have been necessary to transport Nigeria's currency if he hadn't implemented certain decisions upon assuming office in 2023. The naira would have become worthless, requiring people to use a wheelbarrow to carry the country's money, had it not been for Tinubu's actions. He made this remark during a campaign rally for the presidency in Uyo, the capital of Akwa Ibom State.
Tinubu emphasized that the upcoming presidential election on January 16, 2027, is of utmost importance in determining Nigeria's future. He said, "The election coming up on January 16, 2027, is a very important one that will set the course for our country." Upon taking office, 27 governors out of the 36 states in Nigeria were unable to fulfill their salary obligations, let alone pension and gratuity payments.
Had Tinubu not made a decisive move, the naira would have been utterly worthless, necessitating the use of a wheelbarrow to transport Nigeria's currency.
