Atiku Slams Tinubu’s Government for Deepening Economic Crisis

Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has strongly criticized President Bola Tinubu’s handling of the fuel subsidy issue, attributing the nation’s economic struggles to what he termed the administration’s “haphazard and disingenuous approach.” In a tweet posted on Thursday, Atiku expressed deep concern over rising inflation and its negative impact on the lives of Nigerians.

Atiku argued that the poor management of the fuel subsidy has directly contributed to the economic crisis, leaving many citizens to face heightened financial hardship. He pointed out that inflation continues to surge, further eroding the material well-being of the populace.

Moreover, Atiku accused President Tinubu of showing indifference to the growing struggles faced by Nigerians. He highlighted the lack of urgency from the government in addressing the escalating hardship across the country, which has caused widespread dissatisfaction among the public.
