Oyo Governor Criticizes Tinubu Administration for Economic Hardship in Nigeria

Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde has criticized the economic strategies of President Bola Tinubu’s administration, saying they have led to hardship for millions of Nigerians. He made these comments during a live interview on the Bauchi Radio Corporation while promoting his 2027 presidential campaign.

Makinde pointed out that key economic policies were rolled out without proper planning or support systems to help citizens cope with the changes. He believes this lack of preparation has intensified the struggles many people face.

He emphasized that any economic reforms need to be backed by solid planning and clear steps for implementation. This way, ordinary Nigerians will not suffer due to government decisions.

To tackle the country’s economic issues, Makinde called for major structural reforms and a strong commitment from leaders. He also introduced the Allied Peoples Movement’s Reset Nigeria Agenda, which aims to address Nigeria’s challenges through a detailed policy framework and party manifesto.

This agenda is focused on reforming important sectors of the economy, encouraging sustainable development, and restoring a federal system that respects Nigeria’s diverse cultures.
