Tinubu Presidency: Nigeria Retrogress to 2015 Era – LP

The Labour Party has said with the inauguration of Bola Tinubu and Kashim Shettima as President and Vice President, the country was returning to 2015 era.

The party said with Tinubu’s inaugural speech, it was obvious that the ruling party was bent on dragging Nigeria back to the route of underdevelopment.

LP National Publicity Secretary, Obiora Ifoh, in a statement, said the declaration by Tinubu that he won the election fairly was “a slap on the faces of millions of Nigerians”.

“The Labour Party is disappointed with the inaugural speech made by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu today which clearly exposed the shallowness and policy incongruity that his administration, while it lasts, is hoping to bequeath Nigerians.

But today, Nigerians were aghast with the boldness and glee with which Tinubu declared his election as fair. We consider this audacity as a slap on the faces of millions of Nigerians who voted their conscience but were robbed by a collective power of state institutions and brute bringandry unleashed on them.

What was witnessed today was a celebration of lies and deceit, and that explains why the streets are like graveyards with no pomp and pageantry usually associated with a major feat like what we had today.

“Again, Labour Party while campaigning told Nigerians that if given the privilege to preside, we will among other things change our economy from consumption to production and we provided tangible ways we can achieve that policy.
