The ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has admitted that the policies initiated by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu have increased economic hardship in the country.
APC National Publicity Secretary, Barrister Felix Morka, stated this in a statement while replying to a former national vice chairman (North West) of the party, Salihu Mohammed Lukman.
Lukman had accused the APC of failing Nigerians, adding that both former President Muhammadu Buhari and incumbent President Bola Ahmed Tinubu have failed to deliver on their campaign promises.
Lukman also asked opposition leaders to unite and work hard to defeat the APC led government in 2027.
But reacting, Morka in a statement on Tuesday argued that President Tinubu was taking bold measures to reset the country’s “long broken economy”, explaining that his reforms have increased economic hardship in the country.
The statement reads in parts, “The APC-led administration of President Tinubu is taking bold measures to reset our country’s long broken economy, improve national security and restore the country to wholesome and sustainable development.
“No doubt, these inevitable reforms have increased economic hardship for our people. In fact, the unwillingness of previous administrations to undertake these reforms and tackle the problems at their roots is the reason the economy has remained in the doldrums for a long time.”
