In a statement circulating on X, formerly Twitter, the man challenged the government’s position on electricity supply and questioned why Nigerians continued to experience power challenges.
“Nobody forced you to occupy that office. If you know you’re not capable, then step aside,” he said.
The man further criticised the government for distancing itself from responsibility for electricity supply, insisting that Nigerians expect the administration to address the problem.
“You can’t keep telling Nigerians that electricity supply isn’t your responsibility. If you can’t fix the problem, get out of the way,” he added.

Meanwhile, Ex Buhari’s aid raises alarm over alleged mass reporting of Tinubu supporters’ and APC supporters’ X accounts, saying reports alone should not trigger suspension.
Ex Buhari’s aid, Bashir Ahmad has raised concerns a coordinated efforts by some people to mass-report the X accounts of the supporters of President Bola Tinubu and the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Ahmad made the claim in a post on X (formerly Twitter), alleging that some people had formed groups specifically to report accounts belonging to Tinubu supporters and APC online supporters in an attempt to get them suspended.
He said the alleged development reminded him of his own experience with coordinated mass reporting on the social media platform over the years.
According to the Ex Buhari’s aid, he had faced repeated reports from different groups, including a government agency in a Middle Eastern country.
He recalled that around 2018, his X account came under a massive wave of reports, an experience he said led to a follow from Jack Dorsey, the then chief executive officer of Twitter. Click here to read more.
