I’m Not Jealous, Your Economic Policies Not Working, Killing Nigerians – Atiku Replies Tinubu
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, on Monday said President Bola Tinubu’s economic policies and approach to governance are killing Nigerians.

Atiku was the Presidential Candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the 2023 general election.

Atiku who stated this in a statement urged Tinubu to focus on his policies rather than attacking the opposition that is not in the saddle.

Atiku in the statement signed by his Special Assistant on Public Communication, Phrank Shaibu, in reaction to an ” inelegant and insipid statement by the Presidency on Sunday.”

Tinubu’s Spokesman, Bayo Onanuga had accused Atiku of being jealous since he lost the 2023 presidential election.

Responding through Phrank Shaibu, Atiku dismissed such a remark saying, “Atiku, jealous of Tinubu inflicting pain on Nigerians? Hell no, wickedness is an exclusive preserve of T-Pain.

“On July 8, 2024, Tinubu announced that import duty on essential goods like food would be lifted for 150 days.

“But over 120 days later, the policy is yet to take off, while Nigerians continue to die daily due to increasing costs, including food inflation, which now exceeds 40%, the highest in decades.

“The brazen disobedience to a government policy by Tinubu’s appointees and the failure of the finance ministry to issue a gazette after over four months reflects the fatuousness, inanity and incompetence that characterizes the Tinubu administration.

“Sadly, rather than focus on governance, they are preoccupied with verbally assaulting their opponents – Atiku Abubakar and Peter Obi – while using compromised courts to foster crisis in the opposition. What a shame!”

Atiku argued that Tinubu’s abysmal performance in the last 18 months had made it clear to all Nigerians that he came into office unprepared, hence the many policy flip-flops that have so far characterised his tenure.

He added : “Tinubu was obviously unprepared for office.

“He acts first and thinks of the consequences afterwards.

“This was why he announced an abrupt removal of petrol subsidy without any cushions.

“After seeing the effect, he then hurriedly decided to push a CNG initiative, which even he and his ministers have not embraced, hence their refusal to use it.

“The CNG initiative has so far failed to fully kick-off because of a lack of gas infrastructure in most states.

“The result is that transport costs continue to soar along with prices of food.

“In his mid-term expenditure framework, he projected an exchange rate of N700/$1 in 2024 and N650/$1 by 2025.

“Rather than sack his economic advisers, he continues to live in a fool’s paradise, deceiving Nigerians about the FX reserve of $40bn when, in fact, the net reserves are less than 20% of that.

“Let the CBN release its financial statements of 2023 if he is sure of his achievements.”
