‘Nigerians Are Heavily Frustrated’ – APM Accuses APC Govt Of Governing Without Clear Economic Blueprint

The Allied People’s Movement (APM) has said the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has governed Nigeria without a coherent economic blueprint, resulting in a totally confused, careless, and rudderless form of governance, characterised by reckless anti-people policies.

Naija News reports that APM, in a statement by its National Publicity Secretary, Abubakar Yusuf, in Abuja, described the last ten years of the APC government as tragic.

The party said the APC’s leadership style has led to biting economic hardship, hyper-unemployment, skyrocketing inflation, collapsed infrastructure, and widespread insecurity.

According to the APM, Nigerians deserve a better deal, which the party is ready to provide.

The APM further stated that, as a listening party, Nigerians should be assured that the comprehensive blueprint will be unveiled at the right time.

The statement read, “Largely due to APC government’s failures, in the last three years alone, official and independent reports indicate that no fewer than 628,000 Nigerians have been killed with over 2.2 million others including children and women abducted. Poverty rate has hit a staggering 63% with over 33.3% unemployment rate. More than 140 million Nigerians now live below the national poverty line.

“Due to worsening insecurity, collapsed public service and economic inflation exacerbated by unhealthy taxes and tariffs, major multinationals have been exiting our nation in droves. Over 3.7 million Nigerian youths and professionals have fled the country in what is now known as the “Japa” phenomenon resulting in the worst brain drain ever, especially in our education and health sectors.

“APM has developed a pragmatic wide-ranging governance blueprint that will swiftly resuscitate the productive sector, rebuild critical infrastructure, revamp the ailing economy, pull the nation from the brinks of collapse and restore dignity and comfort to the lives of all citizens.

“The blueprint will also reshape the nation’s broken security architecture and effectively check acts of terrorism and guarantee the security of lives and property across the country.

“Nigerians are heavily frustrated, agitated over bad leadership and earnestly seek for a new beginning. It is clear that the APM, with its ideological base, structure and composition, is the only platform that embodies that solution and new beginning.

“APM blueprint comes with a new and transparent approach to governance. An approach that puts Nigerians first, prioritizing inclusive human development and wellbeing through people-oriented policies and prudent management of resources that guarantee security of lives and property, industrialization, massive youth employment, national infrastructural revolution, efficient public service and sustainable prosperity for all.”
