All Of Us, Including Tinubu Are To Be Blamed For Buhari’s Failure
Meanwhile, chieftain of APC, Salihu Lukman, has urged a former governor of Edo state, Adams Oshiomhole, to stop blaming erstwhile President Muhammadu Buhari for the economic crisis plaguing the country.
Naija News recalls that Oshiomhole, during an appearance on Channels Television, had claimed that Nigerians are suffering due to the long-term consequences of the former president’s “reckless policies.”
However, reacting to Oshiomhole’s claims via a statement issued in Abuja titled “APC and Question of Liability: Open Letter to APC Leaders,” Lukman stated that it would be uncharitable to make excuses for Tinubu.
He recalled protesting some of the policies, which he claimed were designed to dehumanise a population that was already in pain.
The APC chieftain insisted that all those in the leadership of APC, including the incumbent president, should be blamed for Buhari’s policies.
