THE Peoples Democratic Party has challenged President Muhammadu Buhari and the All Progressives Congress to name any key development project their administration has initiated and completed in any part of the country, particularly in the North-West geo-political zone.
The party also challenged the President to name any tangible economic policy direction articulated by his administration to end poverty.
The National Publicity Secretary of the PDP, Mr. Kola Ologbondiyan, stated the position of the party on Thursday while receiving a coalition of youth groups from Katsina, who were at the party’s national secretariat to declare their support for Abubakar Atiku.
He said, “Nigerians were deceived to vote for Buhari in 2015, thinking he was pro-poor and prudent only for them to be confronted with the most corrupt, deceitful and incompetent administration which has no commitment towards fulfilling any of its campaign promises.
“President Buhari cannot boast any project initiated and implemented by him as a President. Instead, he has denied his promises and completely wrecked our once robust economy with his harsh, anti people and restrictive policies.
“At the time the PDP handed over power to President Buhari, our economy was one of the fastest growing in the world; Nigerians had access to the basic economic empowerment, the private sector thrived; businesses were booming, foreign investors flooded our country, public servants were given a sense of belonging and purchasing power of citizens was high.”
