A prominent member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Dele Momodu, has expressed skepticism regarding the ability of Bola Tinubu’s administration to improve the conditions for the struggling masses in Nigeria.
The former presidential candidate and veteran journalist, who stated his position during a television programme while discussing the current state of the nation and its prevailing economic challenges as well as the administrations pledges to make positive changes, said he does not see any light at the end of the tunnel for the country.
Recall that the Minister of Budget Planning, Atiku Bagudu recently claimed that the Federal Government was actively working to improve the situation and enhance the living standards of Nigerians.
However, Momodu expressed his disbelief in such assurances, noting that he has heard similar promises from politicians’ numerous times before. Ive lived long enough in this country called Nigeria. Ive listened to all the sweet talk from politicians, yet I have not seen any sign of that light at the end of the tunnel, he remarked.
Im not going to argue with them. I wish them the best of luck because I want Nigeria to succeed. It is not in my interest in Nigeria to fail. If they succeed, Nigerians will applaud them, but if they fail, those who come after them will face the same criticisms that are directed at Buhari now”.
At my age, Im nearly ready to give up hope for meaningful change, as we can see the signs. I doubt that much will come from the current situation, because many of those around the President seem unprepared for any real transformation, he lamented.
