A chieftain of
the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Delta State, Chief Sunny Onuesoke, says
Nigeria would have been a better country without President
Muhammadu Buhari.
Onuesoke spoke to journalists at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport,
Abuja, in reaction to the statement credited to a former governor of Ekiti
State and now Deputy National Chairman (South) of the All Progressives Congress
(APC), Engr.
Segun Oni, that without Buhari Nigerians would have been refugees
by now.
He said
it is unfortunate that people like Oni
would continue to make excuses to justify the failure of the APC
administration instead of rolling up
their sleeves and getting down to doing the serious job of growing the economy.
The PDP chieftain said: “When a
lie is repeated over and over, it begins to sound like the truth. In the
darkest period of military regime, did the Nigerian people become refugees?
This is just a poor way to keep on with the excuse of failure and ineptitude.
Segun Oni should realize that Nigerians are not only refugees under this
present administration, they are also suffering from kwashiokor and mental
affliction induced by the poor mismanagement of the economy by the APC-led
administration.
Move around all the nooks and crannies of the country, from
North to South, East to West and you will admit that things cannot be worse
than what Nigerians are experiencing under this administration.”
Onuesoke
argued that since the coming of the APC administration, inflation rate had
tripled, adding that the price of a bag of rice has increased from N6000 to N20,000, dollar exchange rate increased
from N168 to N500, a bag of beans from N6,000 to N15,000; PMS, that was N86,
now N145 and diesel 135 then now sells N220. He stated that there is no hope
that the inflation will stop.Vanguardngr
