ADC Blames Tinubu and Shettima for Nigeria's Economic Woes

The African Democratic Congress (ADC) accused President Bola Tinubu and Vice President Kashim Shettima of failing Nigerians, asserting that the All Progressives Congress (APC) must take responsibility for the current economic situation. The ADC's Presidential Campaign Council stated that Shettima's claim that Tinubu rescued Nigeria from economic collapse is an indictment of the previous administration under Muhammadu Buhari, also of the APC.

Kola Ologbondiyan, the Director of Media and Publicity for the ADC, emphasized that if Nigeria was heading towards a crisis similar to that of Caracas before Tinubu took office, the APC should accept responsibility for the situation after eight years under Buhari. Ologbondiyan criticized Shettima for attempting to rewrite the APC's political history and argued that Nigerians voted for the APC as a party, not for Buhari as an individual.

He highlighted the government's failure to address infrastructure, electricity, and rising living costs, asserting that Nigerians are already experiencing economic hardship under the APC.
