BLAMING OPPOSITION FOR HUNGER IS ‘DELUSION’, ATIKU TELLS TINUBU

Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has criticised President Bola Tinubu over the suggestion that the opposition is responsible for Nigeria’s economic hardship and hunger, describing such a position as “delusion”.

Atiku’s remarks centre on the responsibility of the Federal Government to address the economic challenges facing Nigerians, including rising living costs and difficulties accessing basic necessities.

The former vice president’s comments add to the political debate over the causes of the country’s economic hardship and the effectiveness of the government’s response.

Food affordability and the cost of living remain important public concerns, with the government’s economic policies continuing to attract both support and criticism from political figures.

Atiku’s statement reflects his criticism of the administration’s position, although further details of the exchange and any response from the Presidency were not included in the brief.
