The opposition People’s Democratic Party (PDP) has scored President Bola Tinubu’s administration low in its first year in office.
The party described the All-Progressives Congress (APC) government’s first year in office as the most challenging in Nigeria’s history since the Civil War.
In a statement on Tuesday by its National Publicity Secretary, Debo Ologunagba, the PDP said it is apparent that inflicting pain and misery on Nigerians remains the policy thrust of successive APC administrations.
It said the adverse effects of poorly conceived and executed policies, without any supportive measures to alleviate the resulting have led to increased costs and associated hardships for the masses, and have plunged many into extreme poverty.
The opposition party urged President Tinubu to utilize the occasion of his one year in office to carefully assess the state of the nation during his tenure, critically evaluate his policies, and present a coherent economic plan aimed at improving the welfare of the Nigerian populace.
It also highlighted the inadequate attention given to security by the APC, as evidenced by the widespread killings, kidnappings, and attacks by bandits and terrorists that continue to plague communities across the nation.
