Rotimi Amaechi Criticizes Tinubu's Administration, Praises Buhari's Governance During Electoral Reform Protest

Rotimi Amaechi, the former Minister of Transport in Nigeria, expressed that Nigerians enjoyed a better standard of living during the tenure of former President Muhammadu Buhari compared to the current administration under Tinubu. Amaechi's comments were made during a protest for electoral reforms at the National Assembly in Abuja, where he highlighted the need to strengthen Nigeria's democratic processes.

He emphasized the significant decline in the standard of living under the present administration and criticized the lack of transparency in the electoral process, which has led to a growing threat to credible elections. Amaechi's presence at the protest, which attracted a large number of Nigerian youths, aimed to draw attention to the demand for real-time electronic transmission of election results.

The former minister stressed the importance of restoring public confidence in the government to address the country's socio-economic challenges. The protest also followed the Senate's rejection of proposed electoral reforms, sparking public outrage.
