·Slams National Assembly for recess on democracy day
Chuks Okocha in Abuja
The African Democratic Congress (ADC) has dismissed President Bola Tinubu’s Democracy Day address as “another campaign speech masquerading as a presidential address,” arguing that after three years of the Tinubu administration and 11 years of APC rule, Nigerians deserve results rather than fresh promises.
The party said the President’s repeated assurances on economic recovery, security and job creation amounted to an admission that the APC had failed to deliver on the very promises that brought it to power in 2015.
According to the ADC, in a statement by the National Publicity Secretary, Mallam Bolaji Abdullahi said, a government that is still asking for patience after more than a decade in power cannot continue to blame the past for Nigeria’s worsening insecurity, cost-of-living crisis and unemployment challenges.
