Nigerians still waiting for Tinubu’s promised electricity - ADC

The African Democratic Congress Presidential Campaign Council has expressed frustration that Nigerians are still grappling with unreliable electricity supply, despite President Bola Tinubu's campaign pledge to deliver it. In a statement, the ADC-PCC challenged the President to justify why millions of citizens continue to suffer from poor power, even after he assured voters that they would not re-elect him if he failed to provide electricity.

The Council criticized Tinubu for making fresh promises during recent campaign visits to Kaduna, Rivers, and Jigawa states, instead of presenting a clear summary of his administration's accomplishments. They pointed out that the President is simply reiterating his earlier electricity promise in Jigawa, while Nigerians are still awaiting answers on why dependable power remains out of reach.

Additionally, the Council questioned the whereabouts and effectiveness of 2,000 tractors reportedly brought in from Brazil as part of the government's mechanized farming initiative. They also accused Tinubu of claiming credit for projects initiated by his predecessor, Muhammadu Buhari, without offering evidence of his own notable achievements.
