The media office of the Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC, presidential candidate, Peter Obi, has launched a fresh attack on the administration of President Bola Tinubu.
In a statement signed by Idris Zekeri Jnr, spokesman for the
media office, on Sunday, the team listed major areas it described as failures
of the Tinubu administration ahead of the 2027 presidential election.
The media office placed the rising cost of living at the
centre of its criticism, arguing that the removal of the petrol subsidy and
other economic reforms had placed a heavy burden on households.
The team linked the reforms to higher transportation costs
and increases in the prices of food and other basic necessities, while
criticising the depreciation of the naira.
The statement noted that the weaker currency had increased
the cost of imported goods, medicines, machinery and industrial inputs.
According to the team, businesses that depended on imported
materials had been forced to operate under increased costs, with the burden
eventually passed on to consumers.
It listed the alleged failures of the Tinubu administration
as follows:
Rising cost of living
Naira’s depreciation
Inflation and falling purchasing power
Security
Transparency and public trust
Economic policies
Government promises and the experiences of ordinary
Nigerians
Inflation and falling purchasing power
