The media team of former Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, has criticized President Bola Tinubu's administration, claiming it is exacerbating the crisis in Nigeria.
This statement was made in response to a media attack on Peter Obi by the Lagos State Chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
DAILY POST recalls that this is for political gain rather than demonstrating genuine statesmanship.
“Let us be clear: President Tinubu did not inherit insecurity; he took over government power after his party spent eight years worsening the situation under Muhammadu Buhari,” they stated.
“The APC cannot distance itself from its own disastrous record. The same propaganda that concealed Buhari’s incompetence is now being repackaged under the guise of 'Renewed Hope,' but Nigerians are not fooled.”
“Currently, under Tinubu's leadership, the naira has plummeted to over N1,600 to the dollar, and inflation exceeds 30%, with food prices doubling within months.”
“The removal of the fuel subsidy was poorly managed, pushing millions into poverty. Insecurity continues to rise, with kidnappings and banditry spreading unchecked.”
“Human rights abuses and corruption have intensified, as confirmed by both domestic and international observers. If this is what the Lagos APC refers to as fixing Nigeria, then they have redefined failure as progress,” stated Obi’s media team.
