However, many users on X and Facebook questioned Onanuga’s claims, citing rising costs and hardship.
The nickname “T-Pain” emerged on social media, playing off Tinubu’s name and American rapper T-Pain.
Former VP Atiku Abubakar also used the term in a tweet criticizing Tinubu’s handling of the fuel subsidy crisis.
The controversy highlights growing concerns over Nigeria’s economic situation.
