Following, Atiku Abubakar statement on Tinubu’s one year in office which he described his policies as ‘cocktail of policies’, the ruling All Progressives Congress has said the former VP was not in a position to dismiss Tinubu’s ongoing policies as ‘trial and error.’
In a statement issued by the 2023 presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, Atiku in Abuja to appraise the president’s one year in office said Tinubu’s policies has no concrete plans to achieve the remodelling of the economy that he promised after his inauguration.
However, a statement issued in Abuja titled ‘Atiku Abubakar is befogged with political envy,’ the National Publicity Secretary of the APC, Felix Morka said Atiku’s false alarm on the economic situation of the country ignores the proactive measures already introduced by President Tinubu to guarantee food security in the country.
Morka said, “Atiku’s self-serving efforts to minimize the bold, genuine, and metamorphic policies and interventions of the present administration only smacks of primordial political envy and crass desperation for the power Nigerians have so wisely denied him. He lives in an alternate reality of prejudice and unpatriotic desire for Nigeria’s failure so he may scavenge his way to an even more elusive presidency.
“The President needs the support and encouragement of Nigerians, not the bile-filled pessimism of partisan Atikus. Atiku’s false alarm of an imminent food scarcity boldface ignores the widely acknowledged proactive measures already introduced by President Tinubu to guarantee food security in the country.”
“The former Vice President’s swipe on the administration’s national security management again betrays his lack of touch with the reality of our current situation. Not only did the administration revamp and reconfigure the country’s security apparatus, but it also created a Special Security Fund to boost its superiority and operational effectiveness against merchants of crime and insecurity.
“Yet, Atiku turns a blind eye to considerable improvement in our security, especially in the North East where Atiku hails from. The opposition’s efforts to burden the administration with ceaseless, contrived, unjustified, and diversionary reproval is grossly miscalculated and misleading.
“Tinubu remains unshakable in his commitment to building concrete blocks of progress and greatness for Nigeria. While Atiku and his band of mudslingers idle away, the President will continue, unstoppably, to deliver high-grade infrastructure not only in our nation’s capital, Abuja but all around the country.”
