The All Progressives Congress (APC) has again accused a former vice president, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar of inciting Nigerians against the Bola Tinubu-led government.

Felix Morka, APC national publicity secretary, made the allegation in a statement on Monday, November 4.

The ruling party was reacting to Atiku’s statement on Sunday, November 3, where the former vice president outlined what he would have done differently from the APC-led federal government if he won the 2023 presidential election.

Part of the statement read: “It is now clear for all to see that Atiku’s stale policy prescription has got nothing on the robust economic policy framework now under implementation by President Tinubu’s administration.

“But Atiku has continued to gaslight Nigerians, inciting outrage and enabling street protests against the administration’s reform policy plan that is designed to rebuild the country’s economy that he helped to destroy as a two term Vice President under PDP’s wasteful years.

“Atiku is well aware that price increases are an inevitable consequence of implementing a unified exchange regime and removing petrol subsidy. There’s no magic bulwark against that. Atiku did not prescribe any.

“President Tinubu remains committed to implementing bold, forward-looking and effective policies that address Nigeria’s complex challenges at their roots.

“President Tinubu’s reform agenda, tough as it may be, is required to build a strong, resilient, vibrant, prosperous and sustainable economy for present and future generations of Nigerians.

“Atiku’s relentless and indiscriminate condemnation of the administration’s policies for selfish partisan political mileage is hypocrisy taken too far. Nigerians expect and deserve more statesmanship from a former Vice President of the Federal Republic.”
