If we had left it, it would have been a wheelbarrow when you go to the market to buy tomatoes. That is the truth.”</blockquote>In this video, President Tinubu responds to Nigerians complaining about the naira exchanging at ₦1,300 to $1, arguing that without his administration's currency reforms, the naira would have become so worthless that Nigerians would need wheelbarrows to carry their money.<br><br><blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-dnt="true"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Who understands what Tinubu is saying here?😭<br><br>Look at the faces of the crowd. Everyone is utterly confused!💔✍️ <a href="https://t.co/MIAqwaJKzG">https://t.co/MIAqwaJKzG</a> <a href="https://t.co/AHrUAgKmFB">pic.twitter.com/AHrUAgKmFB</a></p>&mdash; Obiasogu David (@afrisagacity) <a href="https://x.com/afrisagacity/status/2119340301516984602?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">November 8, 2026</a></blockquote><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js"></script>
