By Luminous Jannamike ABUJA – Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has challenged the All Progressives Congress Presidential Campaign Council, APC-PCC, over its defence of President Bola Tinubu’s electricity pledge, insisting that Nigerians cannot power their homes and businesses with laws, bonds and project announcements.
Atiku said despite the administration’s explanations about reforms and ongoing projects, Nigerians were still battling unreliable electricity, rising tariffs and the cost of alternative power, three and a half years after Tinubu promised steady supply and an end to estimated billing.
said on Sunday by the Director of Strategic Communication of the African Democratic Congress Presidential Campaign Council, ADC-PCC, Phrank Shaibu, the former vice president accused the APC campaign council of celebrating policy documents and financial interventions instead of addressing the failure to translate them into reliable electricity. “The APC should spare Nigerians the spectacle of celebrating paperwork while homes and businesses remain in darkness. After three and a half years, families still struggle to keep their homes lit. Traders and small business owners spend scarce resources on alternative power, yet struggle to keep their businesses alive.
