Lukman recently criticized the APC, stating that both former President Muhammadu Buhari and current President Tinubu failed to fulfil their campaign promises, leaving Nigerians disappointed. He urged opposition leaders to unite and work tirelessly to defeat the APC-led government in the 2027 elections.

However, in response, Morka defended President Tinubu's administration, arguing that it is taking bold steps to revamp the country's struggling economy, enhance national security, and promote sustainable development.

APC acknowledge economic hardship

Morka acknowledged that these reforms have caused short-term economic hardship but attributed this to the necessary corrective measures needed to address long-standing problems neglected by previous administrations.

The statement reads in part:

“No doubt, these inevitable reforms have increased economic hardship for our people. In fact, the unwillingness of previous administrations to undertake these reforms and tackle the problems at their roots is the reason the economy has remained in the doldrums for a long time.”

This is coming barely a month after some Nigerians took to the streets to protest the country's economic hardship. The protest lasted for ten days and led to some protesters raising Russian flags in some northern parts of the country.
