The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) criticizes President Bola Tinubu for his lack of empathy towards Nigerians suffering from economic hardship caused by the removal of fuel subsidy.
The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP , says President Bola Tinubu’s comments during his media chat on Monday revealed that he does not care about the economic hardship plaguing Nigeria ns. The Spokesman of the party, Debo Ologunagba, stated this in a statement on Tuesday while reacting to President's first media chat. Ologunagba said the president is insensitive to the widespread suffering and hardship afflicting citizens for saying that he does not regret removing the petrol subsidy.
DAILY POST recalls that the president in his first media chat said he has no regret removing petrol subsidy. Reacting, Ologunagba said: “The declaration by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu that he has no regrets for the sudden removal of fuel subsidy without any cushioning measures to mitigate the resultant crippling effect on the productive sector, high cost of living, and associated hardship, which is now driving citizens to extreme poverty and early death, also confirms APC’s disconnection from the primary purpose of government, which is the welfare and security of the citizens. “It is instructive that President Tinubu in the chat admitted that Nigerians are bearing the brunt of the failure and inability of the APC administration under his watch to effectively police and secure our nation’s borders so as to prevent the smuggling of petroleum products to neighbouring countries. “The PDP is disturbed that while the APC has failed to account for the proceeds saved from the removal of the subsidy, Nigerians are subjected to crushing economic hardship because the APC administration has failed in its fundamental duty of ensuring the territorial integrity of our nation.' According to the PDP Spokesman, instead of admitting failure and seeking solutions, Tinubu claimed that the nation’s economy has improved under his watch. Ologunagba further stated that the economy has worsened with a comatose productive sector, a deteriorating value of the naira and soaring inflation of 34.6 percen
