President Tinubu’s Unfulfilled 2023 Electricity Promise Under Scrutiny

President Bola Tinubu’s 2023 campaign promise of uninterrupted electricity supply and an end to estimated billing has come under scrutiny, as a video of the promise resurfaces. During the presidential election campaign, Tinubu made the pledge during a business lunch, vowing that Nigerians would enjoy electricity by all means necessary and would no longer suffer from the burden of estimated billing. However, nearly three years into his presidency, many Nigerians are yet to experience the promised improvement in electricity supply.

The video, which was shared widely on social media platforms, shows Tinubu emphasizing his commitment to ensuring stable power supply and eradicating estimated billing, stating that it was a priority for his administration. While Tinubu has not directly addressed the video or the unfulfilled promise, his administration has faced criticism over its handling of the power sector.

According to Daily Post Nigeria, the video has sparked a wave of reactions from Nigerians, who are questioning the president’s commitment to delivering on his campaign promises. Many have taken to social media to express their disappointment and frustration, with some calling for accountability and consequences for Tinubu’s failure to deliver on the promise.

The issue of electricity supply and estimated billing remains a critical challenge in Nigeria, with frequent power outages and high costs impacting businesses and households alike. As the president approaches the midpoint of his term, Nigerians are looking for tangible improvements in this essential service.
