For not being able to fulfill its lofty campaign promises, Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) chieftain, Chief Sunny Onuesoke, says the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) at the federal level has failed the people  and should be voted out in 2019.

Onuesoke, who spoke while addressing PDP supporters  in Oteri, Delta State after a meeting with  Secretary to the State Government (SSG), Mr Ovie Agas, recalled that two years into the administration of APC at the federal level,    no campaign    promises made by the    party had    been kept, adding that they    promised to scale up the exchange rate of our currency by making one naira equal to one US dollar but the currency rose from N190 to N400 per dollar.

He maintained that as    a result of  the exchange rate, the cost of almost every commodity in the market has skyrocketed.

According to Onuesoke, what the APC had done is to drive down the country’s economy to a point where even President Muhammadu Buhari confessed that the nation was broke.

“Inflation has nearly hit double digits, unemployment rate has hit the rooftop since May 2015, with companies, banks and corporate organizations laying off tens of thousands of workers”, he stated.

“They promised to pay N5,000 to 25 million unemployed youths. Have they paid a kobo to any youth? They promised free meals for  our children in  school. Have they given any?”.

He explained that  Buhari’s promise to fight corruption had turned out to be the greatest joke of the century hence Nigerians have found out that the fight  is executed to intimidate the opposition, while corrupt APC members walk freely.

“They threatened members of opposition party with Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) in order to weaken them. Once a suspected corrupt opposition party member decamps to APC his sins are forgiven and he becomes a saint. Is that how to fight corruption? Is Buhari telling us that no one is corrupt in APC.”
