The opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has mocked the Presidency over the list of major projects and policy achievements completed by the Muhammadu Buhari administration since 2015.
Bibian Anekwe News reported that Presidential spokesman, Femi Adesina, had in a statement on Sunday released a list of policies and projects that was started and completed in the last six years under the present government.
According to Adesina, President Buhari has broken many jinxes since assuming democratic leadership of the country in 2015.
The list released by the presidency contains achievements, projects, and policies such as the profit declared by the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC), the 2020 CAMA, the overhaul of the Police act which gave birth to Nigeria Police Act 2020, road projects across the country, the Lagos-Ibadan rail project and many others.
But in an interview with The PUNCH, PDP Spokesman, Kola Ologbondiyan, stated that the list of “phantom achievements” released by the Presidency had no impact on the lives of Nigerians.
He stated that the Buhari government has made the value of a Nigerian life worthless due to the incessant killing by Boko Haram insurgents, bandit terrorists and killer herdsmen.
According to Ologbondiyan, the Buhari government has damaged the economy, and the exchange rate of the naira to the dollar is the worst in the history of the nation.
The PDP spokesman claimed that the President and the All Progressives Congress (APC) have failed the nation and Nigerians.
He said the President should be ashamed that Nigerians were worse off than they were in 2015 when he assumed office, instead of celebrating “Kangaroo projects”.
Ologbondiyan, however, said that Nigerians can’t wait to vote out the Buhari administration and all it represents in 2023.
He said, “Let us even assume that the claims by the regime are true, how has these impacted on the lives of Nigerians? What is the value of a Nigerian life today?
“The exchange rate of the naira to the dollar is the worst in our history. The President has failed this nation; Nigerians can’t wait to vote out this rudderless regime and all it represents.”
