The presidential candidate of the African Democratic Congress, ADC, Atiku Abubakar, has slammed President Bola Tinubu for describing Nigeria as a cancer patient.
Speaking during a world press conference on Thursday in
Abuja, Atiku asked why Tinubu has not cured Nigeria in the three years of his
administration.
Recall that President Tinubu, in his Independence Day
nationwide broadcast likened Nigeria to a cancer patient.
“Bola, you called Nigeria a patient with cancer. After three
years of your treatment, why is it harder for Nigerians to buy food, pay for
medicine, or even get to work? Why does your government have more money while
the people can afford less?
“You said Nigerians must endure the pain because you are
curing the disease, but when a patient cries out, a doctor listens. He does not
call the patient retrogressive for asking when he will get better. He does not
point to the hospital’s rising revenue and declare him healed.
“A patient who cannot afford to live is not proof that the
treatment is working. Absolutely not. And you cannot speak as though you
arrived from the moon in 2023.
“Your party had governed Nigeria for eight years, if not
more. If the country was as sick as you say, tell Nigeria to come to the places
where Nigerians make their daily choices,” Atiku said.
