That is why I keep saying that PDP has no justification to insult or criticise APC because both of them are the same killers of the economy. PDP met the currency at N90 in the black market in 1999 and left it at N300 in 2015 when they left power. APC met it at N300 in 2015 according to the post and has murdered the currency to over N612 in 2022 and they are still unrelenting and the murdering keeps growing embarassed. The same group of people changing parties but with their evil personalities still remaining embarassed embarassed

Buhari met naira sleeping stylishly on dollar in 2015 and immediately gave it a flight ticket to oblivion,imagine Naira competing with Malawi Pasco and ugadan shillings for the most useless currency in the world,who would have thought that Buhari was capable of pulling such a miracle in less than 7 years

civilian govt of the SECOND REPUBLIC and MILITARY should be in the best position to answer that question.
Lastly the REBUILDING of FCT ABUJA was a total waste of fund that further led to the collapse of the naira

I am not PDP man but I strongly think they have justification ...

Buhari had promised us many things included this very one issue.





So stop defending the failure called Mo. Buhari
