There Is Absence Of Coherent Programme In Tinubu Government – Afenifere
In a recent meeting held at the residence of its leader, Pa Ayo Adebanjo, in Isanya-Ogbo, Ogun State, the group condemned the government for its apparent disconnect from the “agony and distressing state of the nation” that citizens are currently enduring.
The socio-cultural organization Afenifere has expressed concern over President Bola Tinubu’s administration, accusing it of failing to show empathy towards the suffering experienced by Nigerians.
In a recent meeting held at the residence of its leader, Pa Ayo Adebanjo, in Isanya-Ogbo, Ogun State, the group condemned the government for its apparent disconnect from the “agony and distressing state of the nation” that citizens are currently enduring.
The communique, released by Afenifere’s Deputy Leader, Oba Oladipo Olaitan, and Deputy Secretary-General, Alade Rotimi-John, pointed to the pervasive hardship, relentless insecurity, and crippling hunger that are affecting many Nigerians.
The organization criticised recent government policies, particularly the hike in fuel prices, which they claim further exacerbates the plight of the populace.
Afenifere highlighted the alarming absence of a coherent plan of action from the Tinubu administration to address the pressing issues faced by citizens.
The group urged the government to adopt more compassionate and effective strategies to alleviate the hardships impacting the lives of Nigerians.
The communique reads, “Afenifere reviewed the unremitting distressing state of the nation’s social and economic situation under the President Bola Tinubu administration.
“Meeting observed that the distressful condition of the country is exemplified in pervasive hardship, unflagging insecurity and incapacitating hunger.”
Olaitan said, “The meeting noted the absence of official empathy respecting the people’s agonising situation.
“Meeting has instead observed an unwearying policy enunciation ostensibly aimed at compounding the woes of the people, e.g. the unabating fuel price hike.
“Afenifere observed the cavalier conduct of state affairs in, for instance, the absence of any coherent or unequivocal programme on the part of the government and its party,” Olaitan added.
