 Tinubu has made Nigerians poorer, hungrier, angrier – ADC

The African Democratic Congress, ADC, has fired back at the Presidency over its recent assertion that President Bola Tinubu has no plans to extend his tenure beyond 2031.

The party, while describing the remarks as presumptuous and patently undemocratic, said President Tinubu should prepare to hand over to a more competent Nigerian in 2027.

In a statement issued on Tuesday by its National Publicity Secretary, Mallam Bolaji Abdullahi, ADC asserted that the President’s mandate ends in 2027, and the party is confident that Nigerians will not wish to extend his tenure by a single day.

It lamented the deteriorating security and economic crisis in the country, particularly the depreciation of the local currency, the naira.

According to the opposition party, the naira has collapsed, insisting that the All Progressives Congress, APC-led government has plunged many Nigerians into abject poverty.

“Under his watch, national security has degenerated into a cruel joke. Terrorists, bandits, and criminals now operate with total impunity.

“Citizens are kidnapped in broad daylight. Rural communities have become warzones. Insecurity has metastasized into national trauma, and the government has neither the will nor the capacity to stop it.

“The economy, meanwhile, is in free fall. The naira has collapsed. Inflation is out of control. Food prices have tripled in many parts of the country. Jobs are vanishing. The middle class is disappearing.

“Businesses that once thrived are collapsing under the weight of punitive taxes and policy inconsistencies. Nigerians are now poorer, hungrier, and angrier than they were before Tinubu took office,” ADC lamented.
