Atiku identifies Buhari govt as worst administration to govern Nigeria since 1999, gives reasons

A former vice president, Atiku Abubakar has identified the President Muhammadu Buhari administration as the worst government in Nigeria since 1999.

Abubakar, a Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, presidential aspirant, said this when he visited former Kaduna State governor, Ahmed Makarfi, on Saturday.

He stated that the rate of unemployment, disunity, inflation among others have increased under the present administration.

According to Abubakar, “You can definitely acknowledge that since the return of democracy, we have not had a worst period than now, whether in terms of economy, whether in terms of unity, whether in terms of security, this is the worst time since 1999.

“The maladministration of the APC government is very evident, we have the highest record of unemployment since 1999, we have the highest inflation, we have multiple exchange rates that discourage foreign investment. We have the highest level of insecurity since 1999.

“People are more angry, people are poorer more than at anytime. Nigeria is rated as the headquarters of poverty in the world. This is unthinkable for a country that is endowed with human and natural resources like ours, just because of lack of clear headed leadership and direction, this is where we find ourselves. So, it is obvious that we just have to change the leadership of this country.”
