The All Progressives Congress has said President Goodluck Jonathan is handing over a nation in deep crisis, even as his administration continues to contrive more crises without making any effort to solve any of them.

In a statement issued in Abuja on Sunday by its National Publicity Secretary, Lai Mohammed, the party, , appealed to Nigerians not to lose hope, despite the daunting challenges they are currently facing in this atmosphere of contrived chaos.

It said help is on the way.

“In a few days’ time, President Jonathan will hand over to President-elect Muhammadu Buhari,” the APC said. Never in the history of our country has any government handed over to another a more distressed country: No electricity, no fuel, workers are on strike, billions are owed to state and federal workers, 60 billion dollars are owed in national debt and the economy is virtually grounded.

“Today, Nigerians are roaming the streets, jerry cans in hand, searching for everything from kerosene to fuel to diesel to power their homes, keep their vehicles on the road and keep their businesses going. They are paying as much as 300 Naira per litre for fuel, if at all they can get it. Yet their government is not saying a word about the situation.”

APC said while the Jonathan Administration has “arrogantly” told Nigerians that it remains in office and in power till May 29th, all it has been doing is sacking people and making new appointments as if it had been deprived of the opportunity to do so in the past six years.

“They are not interested in how to end the fuel scarcity that has paralysed the socio-economic lives of Nigerians,” the APC said. “They are not interested in how to raise electricity production from its unprecedentedly-low level of 1,327 megawatts. They are not doing anything to end the strike by blue and white collar oil workers, or to stop the impending one.

“They say they are in office till May 29th, but they do not care how workers in 18 states, who are owed a total of 300 billion Naira in salaries under their watch, or federal workers who are owed N400 billion, will be paid. Yet they are running a budget of N1trillion deficit.

“They have deliberately stopped meeting their obligations to oil marketers, which is now around 200 billion Naira, hence no one is lifting petroleum products anymore. If the current energy crisis is not solved soonest, the telecommunications sector could even be grounded in a matter of days as service providers will have neither electricity nor fuel to power their base stations. Of course the aviation sector has already been left comatose by the fuel crisis. The whole scenario reeks of sabotage.”

APC said before PDP and Jonathan Administration’s spin doctors distort its message, it is important to let Nigerians know that the party (APC) is not engaging in lamentations but simply keeping the citizenry informed of the situation on the ground, with just five days to handover date.

‘If we thought the nation was being well managed and there was no problem, we would not have embarked on a campaign of change,” the party said. “While we are ready, willing and able to begin to address the mammoth challenges facing us as a nation as soon as we assume office at the centre in a few days’ time, we will not hesitate for a second to keep Nigerians informed of how we have been brought to this sorry pass, with a view to avoiding such a tragic turn in the future.”

It expressed sadness that the nation has been on auto pilot for the past several weeks, as the outgoing administration has shown neither the capacity nor the willingness to resolve any of the crises it has contrived and foisted on the nation.

”This is the most vivid manifestation of the old saying that literally translates to a departing office holder defecating on the chair he is vacating,” APC said.

Then repair it when u get their

Him cell na extra years for that

Change don come so do not cry over spill milk

What kind of legacy is he leaving behind?
No light,no fuel,lack of employment ,huge debt ,kidnapping,corruption and lack of security

The more reason he should not be spared by Buhari.

I was sympathetic to him but he has shown to be very crude at getting back at his foes.

The last time we checked, he remains the president till May 29th. So, why has he chosen to look on as if he is no longer the president?

Why has he refused to meet the marketers and possibly pay them what is owed them even if he needs to borrow, after all we are already borrowing to pay salaries!

Jonathan is a complete disgrace!

gh

Breeze make dey open fowl yansha, na back e for dey come!

Smh. GEJ/PDP can't even empathize with Nigerians at a time like this. Their silence is an indictment on them and an admittance of guilt and culpability. Nigerians will not forget.

You shouldn't expect them to empathise with the people because we finally cut them off our national cake. They really do not care about the people!

Its soothingly amazing to know that we'd have another president this time next week.

Can't wait for the golugo to leave.

Jonathan dey vex say una no vote for him. Well jst lik dt statement promised its a matter of days for Buhari to take over n redeem d situation hopefully

APC should Stop the noise, assume power and let's see the change they promised. Lamentations to cover future inadequacies will not help the APC. if they feel the enormity of the task ahead is beyond them they should shut the f**k up and step down.

So this would have been the continuation of his transformation agenda if we had voted him in?

If he had told us we would be transforming into Somalia, we would have known how to deal.


If he doesn't have a solution now, he wouldn't have had a solution if he had be re-elected...Jonah must be glad he was voted out.

However, in another rigmarole;

lilprinze:

You should be the one to STFU Mr.

APC is still technically an opposition party, at least till May 29th. You don't expect them to accept the blame for Jonathan's mess now do you? just coz they beat him at the polls.

At least they are wise enough to empathize with the suffering masses while the sitting government is mum about the crises they've created.

.

It's really a big pity.

I have always known Jonathan to be vindictive despite his cool mien. I'm not going to speculate anything but you people should know that...



Diaris God in everything that you do! Jonathan, this blood you people are sharing, diaris God Ooo...

Contrived or not, the APC should be grateful to God that Jonathan, by his failings, is offering them a chance to deregulate the downstream sector of the oil industry without much opposition like he faced. In a few days, they shall be in charge and that is why I expect them to silently offer thanksgiving prayers that they have been offered an ample chance to administer the first bitter pill on Nigerians: removal of fuel subsidy!

worry Less! Captain Nigeria (Buhari) is on his way to fix things But the country is really messed up

excuses to fail

This is both shameful and irresponsible of the outgoing administration. This suffering is unnecessary and distressing.

To make matters worse, the regime is yet to say a thing on the issue. Very unfortunate!

This is a deliberate act by the incumbent government to sabotage the economy before they leave office. How can two of the most important sectors of the economy be experiencing total meltdown few days to handing over. This can't be a co-incident and it's affecting the masses negatively. Businesses are crumbling, people are dying because there is no electricity and fuel to power hospitals. I have finally lost the respect I have for Jonathan.

What do you expect from a clueless man
Baba will fix it.

Demdem:


Brownfool, stop being ridiculous. U are a shameless Jonah-daft cocck sucker.

On what basis, that I refuse to join you in calling him jona-daft? Mehn you running mad, bring out a post from my archive showing that i support Jonathan you idiat

Chill Mr, Yes "Subsidy" will go but not in that GEJ inhuman way...when d books are opened u wl see dt ds whole "subsidy" is all a myth.

U jst cnt wake up n knock off "subsidy" which in my opinion is a conduit to steal our common patrimony without puttin palliative measures and that is after decieving us that it wl b removed in April of that year.

There were buses commisioned aftr negotiations to end d protest, did/do u see them in ur part of town?

What happend to d subsidy scammers?
