President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has made a bold declaration during his meeting with Brazil’s President, claiming that since he assumed office, “there is no more corruption in Nigeria and everything is going well.”

The statement has quickly become a talking point across the country, with many Nigerians expressing disbelief and frustration. Critics argue that the claim does not reflect the current realities on the ground, where corruption scandals and economic hardship remain pressing concerns.

A political analyst  went so far as to call Tinubu’s remarks “the joke of the century.” At the same time, social media users flooded their timelines with sarcastic takes, memes, and pointed reminders of the ongoing challenges in governance and daily life.

For many, Tinubu’s comments raise questions about the government’s awareness of citizens’ struggles — or whether such remarks are more about political image than lived experience.

What’s your take: Is Tinubu’s statement a confident expression of progress, or a dismissal of Nigeria’s harsh realities?
