The opposition party Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), on Monday, claimed that Nigeria was asphyxiating, in dire straits, and fast grinding to a halt under President Bola Tinubu and the All Progressives Congress (APC)-led government.
The party, in a statement by its
national publicity secretary, Hon. Debo Ologunagba, said Nigeria was at the edge of the precipice under Tinubu administration, which it claimed lacks the acceptability and followership of citizens; a situation it said has created an atmosphere and feeling of absence of governance in the country.
Ologunagba said PDP was alarmed that there was a “serious disconnection between the government and the citizens arising from ill-planned and hasty implementation of policies that have brought excruciating hardship, horrifying insecurity and a general sense of apprehension that is already threatening the peace, unity and corporate existence of our nation.”
Leadership reports that the opposition party spokesman added that the administration’s lack of ingenuity, tact and sensitivity towards the wellbeing of Nigerians in the removal of subsidy and floating of the Naira inflamed unbearable high cost of living, crippled national productivity, crashed millions of businesses and sparked massive job loss with attendant escalated poverty, hunger, insecurity and hopelessness across the country.
He added that the situation has snowballed into a dangerous loss of investors’ confidence with international companies exiting the nation and leaving millions of Nigerians stranded in the labour market with crippling effect on Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) which are the real drivers of the national economy
