Presidency fires back at Ex-APC chieftain Lukman

Presidency Fires Back At Ex-APC Chieftain Lukman Over Governance Criticism The Presidency has responded to remarks made by the former National Vice Chairman (Northwest) of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), Salihu Lukman, who criticized the declining state of governance in Nigeria. Ireporteronline reports that Lukman claimed that each administration has progressively worsened compared to its predecessor. Lukman expressed his disappointment, stating that while former President Muhammadu Buhari’s government was worse than that of President Goodluck Jonathan, the current administration under President Bola Tinubu seems to be heading towards an even more dismal performance. He also expressed concern over the lack of organized dialogue among key opposition figures, including former Vice President Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Peter Obi of the Labour Party (LP), and Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP), regarding the upcoming 2027 elections. In response, the Presidency dismissed Lukman’s criticisms, stating that it would not be sidetracked by such comments. Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, emphasized that the administration remains focused on governance and that the results of its ongoing reforms will eventually speak for themselves. Onanuga, in a short message to Vanguard through a text message, said: “We are focused on governance. The results of our reforms will speak eloquently for us. We have no time for people whose pastime is denigrating the administration.”
