Peter Obi has sparked fresh debate after questioning why Nigerians are silent despite the current economic crisis. Reflecting on the past, he recalled how citizens protested massively when fuel rose from ₦87 to ₦120 and the dollar exchanged for ₦180 under former President Jonathan.
Now, with fuel at over ₦900 and the naira crashing to ₦1,500 per dollar, Obi wonders why the streets are quiet. His words call out a perceived double standard in public reaction and raise serious questions about accountability, fear, and the role of civic activism today.
Is Nigeria losing its voice, or are people simply too tired to speak up.
