Numbers don’t feed people, Sowore slams FG’s economic reform metrics

Presidential candidate Omoyele Sowore has criticized the Federal Government's economic reforms, stating that rising revenue and macroeconomic indicators have not improved living conditions for Nigerians. Sowore argues that the government's success should be measured by its impact on Nigerians' standard of living, businesses, employment, education, security, and wages.

He faults the administration for relying on increased revenue, tax collection, and the tax-to-GDP ratio as evidence of economic progress, asserting that Nigerians are more concerned with their ability to afford basic necessities and job creation.
