The Labour Party has rubbished allegations by the All Progressives Congress, APC that the opposition parties are behind protests against the current economic hardships.<\/p>\n
Dismissing the assertion, Labour Party in a statement issued by its spokesman, Obiorah Ifoh affirmed that the protests against the APC government policies showed that President Bola Tinubu was not prepared for governance mocking that governing is not just about grabbing and running with power.<\/p>\n
The Labour Party said: \u201cEvery right thinking Nigerian knows that the APC is the originator and sustainer of sponsored protests. For the party to now suggest that Nigerians who are at the verge of losing it all because of bad policy decision choices of this administration were sponsored is to say the least laughable.<\/p>\n
\u201cThose who took to the streets in Minna, Niger State, a state controlled by the APC went to the streets not as members of opposition parties but as citizens bearing the brunt of this administration\u2019s ineptitude and lack of preparation for governance.<\/p>\n
\u201cIrrespective of party affiliations, religious and ethnic creed, we all go to the same market where the prices of goods and services have skyrocketed. Our children have had to stay home because their parents can no longer afford their school fees. Because of lack of planning, the Federal Government\u2019 is yet to pay January salaries.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur advice to the APC is for it to look for solutions to Nigeria\u2019s problems especially the economic ones it created instead of this propaganda parade. But unfortunately, you cannot give what you don\u2019t have. Governance is not about grabbing and running away with power, it all about making judicious use of it to better the lots of the masses,\u201d the Labour Party said in response to the claims by the APC over the protests in some parts of the country.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
