The Allied Peoples Movement (APM) has criticized the remarks made by the Minister of Budget and Economic Planning, Senator Abubakar Bagudu, regarding the economic difficulties faced by Nigeria. In a statement, the APM argued that President Bola Tinubu's administration was responsible for the failure that led to these challenges.
The APM specifically faulted the removal of fuel subsidies, naira floatation, and other economic measures, claiming that these policies have worsened hardship and negatively impacted businesses and households throughout the country. Bagudu acknowledged the government's underestimation of the economic turmoil that followed these reforms, which the APM deemed irresponsible and unpardonable.
The statement emphasized that the government should take responsibility for the hardship faced by Nigerians, apologize to citizens, and withdraw from the 2027 presidential race. The APM called for a hard reset in Nigeria's political system, advocating for a leadership with a clear roadmap for addressing the nation's economic and security challenges while protecting citizens from further hardship.
