Buhari’s New Year Message Depressing, Full Of False Claims, Says PDP

comments
by AIT / 3 months ago / Politics 

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has described President Muhammadu Buhari’s New Year address as depressing, as it completely failed to address serious economic and security issues confronting the nation, for which Nigerians earnestly expected answers from Government.

National Publicity Secretary, of the party, Kola Ologbondiyan, in a statement on Monday said Nigerians were again treated to another round of false claims and empty promises, which has become a routine in close to three years of APC-controlled Presidency.

The PDP said it had earlier advised the Federal Government not to bother about any new year message to Nigerians, As would heighten Nigerians' despondency rather than providing hope.

The party also expressed disappointment that instead of accepting that it has failed, the Presidency attempted to appropriate and claim credit for the achievements of the PDP, explaining that instead of inspiring the people, the address ended up depressing and annoying them the more as it held no message and did not proffer any solutions to the problems inflicted by the APC Federal Government.

The statement explained that the Presidency deployed over 2000 words passing the buck, begging the question, making empty claims and attempting to appropriate achievements of the PDP administration.

The PDP Said the President’s speech neither addressed how to raise the fallen value of the naira nor how to rescue the labour market from the 8 million job losses and acute unemployment being suffered by Nigerians under the APC and more depressing fact is that the President, who is also the Minister of Petroleum Resources, did not give a clear-cut solution to the acute fuel crisis bedeviling the nation.

The statement added that the speech had no assurances on the worsening economic recession ravaging families under the APC regime; and it had nothing on the dilapidated infrastructure and attendant stress on the economy, which the APC government has caused Nigerians. 

The PDP however challenged the APC Presidency to tell Nigerians which landmark project it has initiated, articulated and executed in its close to three years of governance.
