Nollywood actor Hanks Anuku defends President Bola Tinubu and says Nigeria’s current challenges were not caused by the administration. Speaking on the HonestBunch Podcast, he argues that Nigerians should exercise patience and allow the government time to deliver results.
Both outlets report that Anuku attributes Nigeria’s problems to earlier leadership rather than to Tinubu’s tenure. His comments also draw broad public attention, with online reactions described as critical or heated amid wider anger about the country’s economic and governance conditions.
While both sources focus on the same core message—Tinubu did not “spoil” Nigeria and the public should not expect immediate change—they differ mainly in emphasis. One outlet highlights that Anuku explains why citizens should be patient and contrasts his view with the intensity of online backlash, while the other frames the claim more directly around the idea that “Nigeria was not spoiled by him.”
