Blaming opposition for hunger is ‘delusion’, Atiku tells Tinubu Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has accused President Bola Tinubu of blaming the opposition for the country’s economic hardship. He said the President was trying to evade responsibility for his administration’s policies. Tinubu had earlier on Saturday blamed his political opponents for hunger and poverty in the country while speaking at the All Progressives Congress presidential campaign flag-off in Kaduna. “I hear my opponent talking about hunger, poverty. Who created it? They did! They created the hunger, they created the poverty. We are trying to eradicate it,” the President said. Atiku, the presidential candidate of the African Democratic Congress, said Nigerians were entitled to demand answers from the APC-led government over rising living costs, poverty, insecurity and questions surrounding public expenditure. In a statement issued on Saturday by the Director of Strategic Communication of the ADC Presidential Ca...

 Umahi: Tinubu 'doing good', unpatriotic people behind plan for protests


The Minister of Works, Sen. David Umahi said the administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s administration is doing good things for Nigerians and those planning to protest against it are not patriotic.

Umahi, said this while speaking with newsmen on Sunday in Uburu, Ohaozara Local Government Area of Ebonyi.

The Minister said instead of protests, the focus of Nigerian workers and citizens should be on how to improve productivity, saying such push would improve living standards of the people across the country.

Umahi noted that hunger could go, “if we improve production by engaging in agriculture and step up daily working hours”.

According to him, there is no way we can improve our standard of living, if we do not improve on our productivity and hours we put in.

“We should be able to tell ourselves the basic truth,” Umahi said.

“President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s administration has done good for the people. Let me tell you, Nigerians planning to protest against this administration are not patriotic.

“There is need to change the level and hour of productivity to improve the standard of living.

“By the way, what are the people protesting about? Without the coming of President Tinubu, we would have had a failed country.

“The job is easy when you are not the one doing it. When people say there is hunger, tell us the solution to the hunger. It is not just to be talking.

“So we must engage ourselves into something extra, especially into farming.

“Even when I was in the private sector, I pushed for more hours of productivity.

“Everybody must have work to do. We should not as a people, be buying pepper. We should not be buying tomatoes. We should be able to get bags and fill them with manure and plant these things at the front of our houses.

“Improving standard of living is the responsibility of everybody. No matter how much the federal government injects into the system and palliatives, we must change our working hours.

“We must change our level of productivity, because if we have all the working tools and you do not deploy it, there will be no result.

“I support what the President is doing. The CNG buses, a lot of palliatives, trader monies, monies to the vulnerable families, agricultural inputs, giving out rice and fertilizers to our farmers, to indigent women and men.

“These are very important. But we must be committed and faithful to it. We must change the narratives. Government cannot do everything for us.

“We have to support Mr President to change the course of things. This is my position. When people say they want to protest, they are just being mischievous,” Umahi added.
