Paul Ibe, the spokesperson of Atiku Abubakar, laments that the Nigeria was better than the way it is currently under the APC government
– Ibe describes the current administration as a failure as it has not met its promise of change
– He says the country’s citizens are now more divided than they were in the days of the PDP
Paul Ibe, the spokesperson of the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, has described the administration of President Muhammudu Buhari as a disaster, saying it has left Nigerians worse off.
Vanguard quotes Ibe as saying Nigerians are now very divided under the current government that promised change.
The report said Ibe’s comment came as the Atiku Action Group (AAG 2019), said it has mobilised over three million Nigerians for Atiku.
Ibe said the current government failed Nigerians. He also assured that Atiku had the answer to the country’s many challenges.
“The citizens are divided. This scenario should worry any patriotic Nigerian. A leader should unite his country, but he cannot do so if he is insensitive to our diversity.
“Genuine criticisms of lopsided appointments of security chiefs are frequently ignored and those canvassing respect for our diversity are openly insulted and maligned to divert attention from the issue.
“Nothing can be more dangerous than a political leadership that is indifferent to genuine public criticisms.
“Under no circumstance should Nigerian leaders take its unity for granted. Yes, Nigeria has remarkable resilience, but let us not push our luck too far by disrespecting the country’s sensibilities. We have only come thus far by the mercies and grace of God,” he said.
