“The APC Continue To Lead Nigeria From One Crisis To Another Since 2015” – APC Chieftain, Lukman

A former National Vice Chairman North-West of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Salihu Lukman, says Nigeria has not been the same since
the ruling party took over in 2015.

He asserted that the APC has been leading Nigeria from one crisis to another, leaving the country in a parlous and precarious situation.

Lukman, in a statement issued Saturday, said the first casualty of APC’s incompetence and maladministration after it took over power was its manifesto.

He noted that the party has failed to fulfil the promises it made to Nigerians in 2015, adding that the security crisis in the country is worse than the country witnessed in 2015 and has contributed significantly to the nation’s economic woes.

Lukman noted: “It was discarded and like the PDP, the APC continue to lead ‘Nigeria from one crisis to another, lurching deeper into political anarchy, economic decline and social disillusionment.’

“Nothing changed as the APC, despite all the plans it had ‘for security and advancement of Nigerians,’ lacked ‘the wherewithal to’ implement its vision. With that, sadly, the APC ‘thrived on the maxim; promise (everything), do nothing.’”

“It is quite painful to admit that the crisis of insecurity in the country today, is worse than it was in 2015. It has further deepened the economic crisis because many farmers have abandoned their farms.

“Some of the gains achieved in agricultural production because of some of the policies of the Buhari administration, such as Anchor Borrower and the ban on the importation of food items, which helped to incentivise agricultural production, were eroded by the crisis of insecurity.”
