The Ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has accused the 2023 People’s Democratic Party (PDP) presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, of being envious of President Bola Tinubu and his achievements in the last year in office.
Recall that Atiku on Tuesday described Tinubu’s one year in office as a “cocktail of trial-and-error economic policies”.
Atiku stated that Tinubu’s “policies do not create prosperity”, instead, they pauperize the poor and bankrupt the rich.
Reacting in a statement on Tuesday signed by its National Publicity Secretary, Felix Morka, APC said Atiku is so jealous of the outstanding first-year record of achievements of President Bola Tinubu’s administration.
It accused the former vice president of being desperate for power, saying his ‘crass desperation’ was responsible for his criticism of the President.
The ruling party said Atiku lives in an alternate reality of prejudice and unpatriotic desire for Nigeria’s failure so he may scavenge his way to an even more elusive presidency.
APC disclosed and quote “The former Vice President lives in an alternate reality of prejudice and unpatriotic desire for Nigeria’s failure so he may scavenge his way to an even more elusive presidency.
“Atiku’s false alarm of an imminent food scarcity boldface ignores the widely acknowledged proactive measures already introduced by President Tinubu to guarantee food security in the country”. End Quote
The APC also accused Atiku of turning a “blind eye to considerable improvement in our security, especially in the North East where Atiku hails from”.
