Nigeria Has No Government - Octabase Bsl

The Nigerian Military’s confirmation that some officers allegedly plotted to overthrow President Tinubu’s government has sparked intense debate online. According to reports, the suspects range from the rank of captain to brigadier-general, raising serious concerns about national security and loyalty within the armed forces.

While many Nigerians expressed shock and called for accountability, others used the moment to voice deeper frustrations about governance. One sarcastic comment stood out: “Which federal government did they plot to overthrow? Is there any government in Nigeria presently??”

The remark implies that Nigeria is so poorly governed that it barely qualifies as having a functioning government. Supporters of the comment say it reflects public anger over economic hardship, insecurity, and perceived leadership failure. Critics, however, argue that such statements trivialize a grave allegation and undermine institutions rather than pushing for constructive reform.
