Former Deputy National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Bode George, has charged President Bola Tinubu to end the suffering of Nigerians caused by his anti-people policies.
Speaking on the state of the nation, George reminded Tinubu that Nigerians are hungry and angry.
Addressing journalists in Lagos on Friday, the PDP chieftain called on the president to resolve the economic situation in the country.
He said: “My message to Tinubu is very clear: Nigerians are hungry and angry. This is the time, as the Commander in Chief and the Chief Driver of the economy, to do something about the economic malaise in our country. You must alleviate the suffering of the people now.
“There is no separate market for APC and PDP members. All Nigerians go to the same market. Everybody is feeling the anti-people policies of this government. Bola Tinubu must pause today and reflect: are people benefiting from the policies of my administration?
“When he came in 2023, a litre of petrol was less than N200 and in the exchange rate market, Naira was less than N800 to a dollar. What do we have today? What exactly is the economic policy of this administration? President Tinubu, Nigerians demand a quick answer to this important question.
“Finally, my concern is this: What will happen to our country if this wind of the New World Order blows across our Nation.
“With the Francophone countries surrounding us with political instability and a big quarrel with France, their colonial master, are we ready to remain stable and be strong? Let’s start this discussion now as a stitch in time saves nine.”
