PDP Challenges APC to Address Nigeria's Economic Issues

The People’s Democratic Party (PDP) issued a response to a statement from the All Progressives Congress (APC) regarding the economic hardships faced by Nigerians. The APC's publicity secretary had blamed the PDP for the hunger and economic difficulties currently affecting the country during an appearance on the News Central Breakfast Show.

The PDP, through its national publicity secretary, Hon. Jungudo Haruna Mohammed, criticized this as an attempt to divert attention from pressing issues. The PDP acknowledged some achievements of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu's administration but rejected the notion that the previous PDP-led administrations should be held responsible for current economic challenges.

The PDP urged the APC to stop the blame game and instead focus on actionable solutions to improve food affordability, support farmers, create jobs, enhance security, and restore the purchasing power of Nigerians. The PDP emphasized that accountability is essential and that every administration should be judged by its policies and the living conditions of its citizens.
