Duke Criticizes Tinubu's Anti-People Economic Policies

Donald Duke, the presidential candidate of the Peoples Redemption Party (PRP), stated that the exchanges between President Bola Tinubu's administration and leading opposition parties indicate a lack of intention to change what he termed key anti-people policies. In a statement issued on Saturday, Duke accused the Tinubu administration of implementing economic policies that worsen the financial situation for Nigerians while benefiting the government.

He emphasized that the current economic direction has failed to provide relief, leading to increased poverty. Duke criticized the transition from the previous fuel subsidy to a poorly managed alternative that profits the government at the expense of citizens.

He urged a move away from political debates towards practical economic solutions that can stimulate growth and alleviate poverty. Duke asserted that under the PRP, the focus would be on innovative policies that prioritize the livelihoods of Nigerians.
