Tinubu can’t claim economic success while making Nigerians poorer – Atiku’s camp

Atiku Abubakar's campaign team has criticized President Bola Tinubu's economic policies, asserting that the president cannot claim economic success while simultaneously worsening the economic situation for Nigerians. According to Atiku's media aide, Paul Ibe, Tinubu's policies have pushed more Nigerians into poverty, which is a damning indictment of an administration that seems more intent on defending its policies than genuinely serving its citizens.

Ibe emphasized that policies are created for humans, not the other way around, and their primary purpose should be to enhance human welfare rather than impoverishing citizens. He further pointed out that Tinubu's policies have led to increased poverty, reduced purchasing power, higher costs for essential goods and services, and a negative impact on businesses.

Therefore, Ibe argued, these policies require immediate review instead of being defended blindly through propaganda. Ibe concluded by asserting that Tinubu cannot claim economic progress while admitting that his policies have made more Nigerians poorer. He stressed that the true measure of good governance lies in how policies positively transform citizens' lives, not in the government's stubborn defense of its policies.

Ibe warned that Nigerians are not mere lab rats for Tinubu's economic experiments and deserve relief, dignity, and a better life that a second term under Tinubu cannot guarantee. Ibe concluded ominously that if given another mandate, Tinubu risks becoming an undertaker.
