The Allied People’s Movement has urged President Bola Tinubu to either resign or withdraw from the presidential contest if he has solutions to the escalating economic and security issues facing Nigeria.
A declaration from its National Publicity Secretary, Abubakar Yusuf, said that the party denounced what it termed assaults by the administration on Archbishop Emeritus of Abuja Catholic Diocese, John Cardinal Onaiyekan.
The opposition asserts that the backlash aimed at the esteemed Catholic cleric about his remarks on the nation’s economic conditions exemplifies a lack of tolerance for dissent and a reluctance on the part of the Federal Government to confront the issues faced by everyday Nigerians.
The APM characterised the assaults on Onaiyekan as intolerable, emphasising that religious figures ought to be honoured for addressing matters impacting the country.
President Tinubu’s reliance on excuses indicates a lack of viable answers; so, he need to withdraw from the presidential race and permit younger individuals with effective strategies to govern our nation.
The Allied People’s Movement vehemently denounces the presidential assault on Archbishop Emeritus of Abuja, John Cardinal Onaiyekan, concerning his remarks about the deteriorating economic conditions under President Bola Tinubu’s governance, the statement partially stated.
The party additionally asserted that instead of addressing the issues highlighted by esteemed individuals and religious leaders, the government opted for personal assaults.
