An old video of Ituma Chukwuemeka, the CEO of Enviable Transport, has resurfaced online, drawing fresh attention to his past comments about Nigeria’s economic situation.

The clip, which appears to have been recorded months ago, captured the businessman openly criticising the state of the economy under the administration of Bola Tinubu.

In the footage, Chukwuemeka lamented the rising cost of goods and how inflation had negatively impacted his company.

He further explained how the soaring exchange rate affected his business operations.

He stated.

“This has also affected me, affected my company as a group. Because if, for example, the number of tricycles we used to buy before was costing us $20m, now it is costing us $50m.”

The resurfaced video comes barely a week after Chukwuemeka donated buses to the City Boy Movement, a support group backing President Tinubu’s re-election bid.

His involvement with the movement signalled clear political alignment with the current administration.

The move placed him alongside notable businessmen such as Obi Cubana and Cubana Chiefpriest, who have also publicly declared support for the President.

Their collective stance has drawn mixed reactions from Nigerians across social media platforms.
