In a speech to mark the end of his second year in office, Tinubu told Nigerians that the "worst is behind" them and that the country is getting better. Former President Muhammadu Buhari also congratulated Tinubu on his mid-term, saying that as the party and the government celebrate, the country should be reminded that leadership is a continuous journey.
Nigerians remain skeptical about the impact of his government's economic reforms, even as his government touts major progress. The opposition party, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), described Tinubu's two years in office as a "massive disappointment".
Political tensions simmer amid claims of ethnic bias in appointments and a contentious state of emergency in Rivers State, raising questions about unmet promises as Tinubu prepares for a 2027 re-election bid.
