Engr. Rotimi Fashakin, the national publicity secretary of the Congress for Progressive Change, CPC, faults President Jonathan’s administration of the country saying he has been more focused on political self-preservation than on promoting the general good of all.
EDUCATION
Nigerian students have recorded failure in Mathematics and English more than in any other time in the Nation’s history. In the 2013 appropriation law, t he allocation of N426.53billion to the sector takes only 8.67percent of the total budget of N4.92trillion, whereas the UNESCO recommended for the allocation of 26percent of the total budget to the sector which is very vital to national development.
It is easily discernible why the Jonathan regime cannot point at brainy but indigent Nigerians that are on scholarship in Nigeria’s tertiary institutions or abroad. Rather than ensuring proper funding for the nation’s universities, the Jonathan regime preferred the vain-glorious political revelry of setting up nine new universities it had no desire to fund ab-initio!
There is no gainsaying in re-stating the comatose state of the Nigerian economy under the political governance of Dr Good-luck Jonathan. With over 70% of the State’s budget spent in servicing over-bloated paraphernalia of government and accumulation of foreign debts to finance all the economically unsound fancies of the regime, it is a matter of time before the Nigerian economy plummets under the weight of gross incompetence and unpatriotic handling by the Jonathan administration.
Infrastructure
The infrastructural decay in the polity has undoubtedly ensured the closure of many industrial concerns and this has inexorably brought the youth unemployment to an all-time high of over 44%.
As a Party, we are forced to believe that this may just be a deliberate policy of this administration as a way to continue to have tether-hold on the youth to implement its programme for electoral manipulations. Clearly, this administration seems unfazed by the portent of a burgeoning number of unemployed youth in terms of national security!
Insecurity
As a party, we are saddened by the insecurity in the land. Ordinary citizens can no longer pursue unfettered happiness without fear of forced kidnapping, harassment and possibly, fatal injury. There is full-scale war going on in some parts of the nation state as a result of politically festered hate which had been bred by the president’s hateful politics. Truly, the divisiveness embedded in the President’s win-at-all-costs brand of politics has inevitably brought us to the sorry-pass of this indescribable conundrum of insecurity!
