2027: Only POS business this govt has given you - ADC urges Nigerians to reject APC

The Presidential Campaign Council of the African Democratic Congress (ADC-PCC) has urged Nigerian youths to vote against President Bola Tinubu's re-election in the upcoming general election. The council criticized the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) for failing to address unemployment, poverty, and the high cost of living in the country.

They urged young Nigerians to support their presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, and running mate, Rotimi Amaechi, ahead of the January 16 presidential poll, stating that the APC has not improved the lives of young people since coming to power. ADC-PCC Director of Media and Publicity, Kola Ologbondiyan, emphasized that re-electing Tinubu would be a mistake for Nigerian youths who have endured harsh economic policies under the current administration.

He highlighted the plight of graduates who can't find decent jobs and have resorted to petty trading, selling recharge cards, and operating point-of-sale (POS) businesses. Ologbondiyan also questioned the effectiveness of the petrol price discount announced by the Tinubu government, noting that the discounted price has not been reflected at the pumps, with motorists still paying above N1,400 per litre.

He advised Nigerians to verify the price at filling stations themselves, emphasizing that the so-called discount has not alleviated the burden on households and businesses.
