Elder statesman and chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Olabode George, has again, accused President Bola Tinubu of inflicting hardship on Nigerians.
George said despite the hardship caused by Tinubu’s economic policies, the President has not shown any concern for the plight of Nigerians.
The former Deputy National Chairman of the PDP lamented that there is so much hunger and anger in the land and there seems to be no respite in site.
Speaking on Channels Television’s Politics Today programme on Tuesday against the recent stampedes in three locations that led to the death of several Nigerians, George said President Tinubu’s policies are only making Nigerians poorer while businesses keep collapsing.
“There is hunger and anger in the land.
“We are not feeling it, it is going worse by the day,” George said.
Commenting on Tinubu’s presidential media chat held on Monday, George said the President’s words lacked any conviction or hope. He described the presidential media chat as a bad way to end the year.
“Hunger doesn’t believe in your talk, you gotta be real.
“I’m surprised that there is no iota of somberness and humanity in the discussion. Why do you have a discussion in the first instance?” he submitted.
Naija News reports the PDP chieftain further asked President Tinubu to reduce the price of petrol and offer palliative to hungry Nigerians affected by his administration’s harsh economic policies.
