Buhari promises to pull 100m Nigerians out of poverty, but creates new 50m poor
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has slammed the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) over the new record of 130 million poor Nigerians in the country.
A PDP member, Matthias Tsado, on Channels television on Monday, said that the APC government under the leadership of President Muhammadu has created over 50 million more poor Nigerians since 2015. He said that President Muhammadu Buhari promised to pull 100 million Nigerians out of poverty but created new 50 million poor Nigeria in his seven and half years in office.
Matthias Tsado had declared: “This government has successfully created 50 million poor people going by that data.
“The President mentioned that he was going to lift 100 million poor people out of poverty, today, they have created more poor people in the country. This is on the streets of Nigeria, everybody knows that life is not the same, life is not the same way it used to be.”
Tsado emphasised that the PDP will provide opportunity for good living for Nigerian citizens. According to him, “We are going to create an opportunity for every single citizen of this country to earn a good living.”
