A former National Vice Chairman, North-West, of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Dr Salihu Lukman, has said that contrary to the expectation that President Bola Tinubu will replicate his earlier success as Lagos governor, his administration has succeeded in creating more doubts in the minds of Nigerians.
Lukman, in a statement issued Tuesday titled, ‘Illusive
Politics: What is to be Done’, saud Tinubu’s administration had been
characterized by policy missteps and reversals.
The APC chieftain lamented that after 25 years of democratic
rule, Nigeria was yet to produce leaders that are predisposed to accommodating
the interests of citizens.
He said: “Painfully, against every expectation that
President Asiwaju Tinubu will reignite the Lagos success story at national level,
his government is more and more creating doubts in the minds of Nigerians about
the prospect of resolving the country’s challenges with incidences of policy
missteps and reversals.
“As a result, crisis of insecurity has remained. Problems of
inflation, unemployment and poverty are on the increase.
“If the hallmark of the tenure of former President Buhari is
the trauma of dashed hopes for citizens, we must, as Nigerian citizens and as
committed progressive politicians, wake up and remedy the ugly and despicable
experience of illusive politics.
“After one year in office, the unmistaken message must be
conveyed to President Asiwaju Tinubu and by extension all APC leaders that the
democratic future of Nigeria is not negotiable.”
