PDP Says Nigeria’s Economy Is Getting Worse Under President Tinubu
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has raised serious concerns about the worsening insecurity and declining economy under President Bola Tinubu’s administration. This was a key point during the PDP’s 99th National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting held on Tuesday in Abuja. The party also said it would carefully consider the South-East caucus’s resolutions at a special meeting scheduled for June 30, 2025. The NEC meeting, which faced several delays before finally taking place, focused on urgent issues affecting the country and the party.
In a statement read by Acting National Chairman Iliya Damagum, the PDP criticized the current government for what it called growing insecurity, economic struggles, and widespread corruption. The statement described the Tinubu-led administration as exploitative and out of touch with the people’s needs. It condemned inconsistent policies, corruption, budget misuse, and the loss of investor confidence, which have led to a decline in Nigeria’s infrastructure.
The PDP also accused the government of trying to weaken opposition parties by intimidating politicians and undermining democratic institutions. Despite these challenges, the party reaffirmed its commitment to democracy, the rule of law, and the people’s right to freely participate in a multi-party political system. The PDP made it clear that it will continue to stand against any moves to limit Nigeria’s democracy or create a one-party system.

Isaac Fayose Criticizes Government Over Taxation and Insecurity
Nigerian businessman Isaac Fayose has spoken about what he considers one of the country’s biggest problems, stating that many Nigerians are worried about government taxation, insecurity, and the increasing rate of kidnappings for ransom.
He lamented the situation and criticized the government, arguing that these issues have become deeply rooted and that there appears to be no lasting solution in sight.
According to him “In Nigeria we have two governments. One is collecting tax, the other one is collecting ransom. Both of them have one thing in common which is to make life difficult for their people.
The one that is collecting tax without doing anything will come and share you rice and semolina. The one that is collecting ransom is doing giveaway on social media.”
