FG ignoring Okonjo-Iweala’s safety net call for Nigerians –ADC

The ADC has criticized the Federal Government for ignoring the call by former Finance Minister Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala to establish a social safety net for millions of struggling Nigerian families. The party's National Publicity Secretary, Mallam Bolaji Abdullahi, accused the government of celebrating headlines instead of addressing the urgent need to grow the economy and provide relief to those suffering.

The ADC emphasized that the current focus on economic stability is meaningless for the majority living in poverty and stressed the importance of job creation and putting money in people's pockets. The party condemned the poorly implemented reforms that have led to job losses and increased hardship, calling for a change in course to prioritize the well-being of Nigerians.

The ADC highlighted the disconnect between the government's celebration of stability and the reality of widespread suffering, urging immediate action to stimulate the economy and alleviate the plight of millions.
