June 12: Accept your failure – ADC blasts Tinubu

The African Democratic Congress, ADC, has lambasted President Bola Tinubu, urging him to accept his failure, and stop making promises after three years in office.

This is contained in a statement by the party’s National Publicity Secretary, Bolaji Abdullahi, on Friday.

The party also blasted the National Assembly for going on recess on democracy day.

It slammed the President for chosing to speak like a candidate contesting for election rather than a leader who has been in the saddle for more than three years.

According to the party, what Nigerians heard today was not the speech of a government entering its fourth year in office.

“The president should own his failure. His democracy day speech was like that of a candidate seeking another mandate.

“Throughout the address, the President asked Nigerians to believe once again that prosperity is just around the corner, that economic reforms will soon bear fruit, that jobs are coming, that security is improving.

“The question Nigerians should be asking is simple: after three years of President Tinubu and eleven years of APC rule, why are we still talking about promises?

“The APC came to power in 2015 promising to tackle insecurity, revive the economy, create jobs, reduce poverty, strengthen institutions, and improve the quality of life of Nigerians. Eleven years later, these same issues continue to dominate the government’s speeches.

“The fact that the President is still making many of the same promises that brought the APC to power is itself an admission that those promises remain unfulfilled,” the ADC said.
