Amaechi Claims Tinubu's Presidency Equals Death for Nigerians

Rotimi Amaechi, the vice-presidential candidate for the African Democratic Congress (ADC), stated in an interview on Channels Television’s Politics Today that President Bola Tinubu’s presidency symbolizes a choice between life and death for Nigerians. He expressed concerns over the rising cost of transportation and living expenses, urging citizens to vote for ADC’s presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, whom he claims represents life.

Amaechi highlighted the financial struggles faced by Nigerians, noting that transport fares consume a significant portion of salaries, with an example of a monthly salary of N70,000 where N65,000 goes to transport. He also mentioned that house rents have surged by 300 percent and that salary increases are negated by high taxes.

Amaechi questioned the viability of voting for Tinubu, asserting that many people are suffering due to the inability to afford basic necessities, including medication, leading to preventable deaths.
