PDP Rejects Tinubu's Blame for Nigeria's Economic Hardships

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), supported by Nyesom Wike, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, has criticized President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) for attributing the current economic hardships in Nigeria to the opposition. During the APC presidential campaign flag-off at the Kaduna Township Stadium, President Tinubu accused the opposition of creating hunger and poverty.

In response, Jungudo Haruna Mohammed, the National Publicity Secretary of the PDP, denied these claims, stating that the APC should take responsibility for the hardships faced by Nigerians. The PDP argued that the APC's statements were attempts to evade accountability and divert attention from pressing issues.

The PDP called for the APC to provide concrete measures to address economic challenges, improve security, and enhance living conditions rather than engaging in blame games. The PDP asserted that Nigerians are seeking practical solutions and that the APC must own its record after over ten years in power.
