Salihu Lukman, a former All Progressives Congress (APC) National Vice Chairman North-West, has bemoaned the fact that since the party took office in 2015, the nation has been steered towards crisis after crisis.
According to a statement released on Saturday by Lukman, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and the APC vary slightly in that the former had a manifesto that clearly outlined its platform, while the latter did not.
But he said that the APC manifesto was the first to fall when the party won the 2015 elections.
Lukman observed: “It was abandoned, and much like the PDP, the APC is still plunging Nigeria farther and deeper into social disillusionment, economic collapse, and political chaos.

“Despite all of its goals ‘for security and advancement of Nigerians,’ the APC lacked ‘the wherewithal to’ carry out its vision, therefore nothing changed. The APC, regrettably, “thrived on the maxim; promise (everything), do nothing” after that.
Admitting that the current state of insecurity in the nation is worse than it was in 2015 is a difficult task. Because so many farmers have given up, the economic crisis has gotten worse.
“The insecurity crisis eroded some of the gains in agricultural production that were made possible by some of the policies of the Buhari administration, such as Anchor Borrower and the ban on the importation of food items, which helped to incentivize agricultural production.”
