APC, Buhari, Tinubu destroyed the country – Former APC National Vice Chairman, Lukman
Former National Vice Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Salihu Lukman, has accused the APC and the leadership of former President Muhammadu Buhari and current President Bola Tinubu of destroying the country.
In a statement released on Saturday in Abuja, Lukman highlighted that the 2027 elections offer a crucial chance to replace them. He emphasized that it’s not enough to simply replace the APC; instead, there must be a system in place to hold the next leaders accountable.
Lukman expressed concern that current opposition leaders are divided by their presidential ambitions rather than uniting for the nation’s greater good. He argued that their inability to collaborate has strengthened President Tinubu’s position.
He said; “At this point, it is important to appeal to our key opposition leaders to wake up and try to be compassionate and appreciate the gravity of the dire situation facing citizens.
“The big question is whether, on account of personal ambitions, we want to continue to mismanage our reality and sacrifice every opportunity, which ideally a democratic system offers.
“The opportunity that the democratic system offers is that any government, which fails its citizens should be voted out. No doubt, by any standard, both President Tinubu and APC have failed Nigerians. It is quite disheartening that a party, which came with all the promises of changing Nigeria for the better has ended up ruining the country.
“From the economy to problems of insecurity and corruption, which were the three cardinal challenges APC and former President Muhammadu Buhari promised to tackle in 2015, what we had in 2015 is a child’s play today.
“The hard truth is that both former President Buhari and President Tinubu have turned out to be self-centred and unable to produce the needed leadership to pull the country out of its current challenges.
“Certainly, all of us who were actively in support of these leaders never imagined that they would be such colossal failures.”
