 Presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Muhammadu Buhari, has told Nigerians that he will get her out of its current economic troubles.
In statement released by the director of media and publicity of the APC presidential campaign organisation, Garba Shehu, the APC campaign codemned the “panicky and uncoordinated management of the national economy by President Goodluck Jonathan and his economic team”.

“It is apparent that the Federal Government has suddenly found itself in a bind with plummeting crude oil prices in the international market, but typical of a team that lacks capacity for anticipatory actions, the Federal Government has been running from pillar to post in a vain bid to stabilize the economy. Unfortunately, all conceived palliatives applied to save the nation’s declining economic indicators have merely scrapped the surface of the problems leaving the mass of Nigerians desperate, confused and hungrier.”

Former president Olusegun Obasanjo seems to have started a new trend in the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
Obasanjo, who dumped the party few weeks back in a well publicised ceremony, gleefully asked the PDP ward chairman in his domain to tear up his party membership card in the full glare of the media and his supporters.

While Obasanjo’s action was still eliciting reactions from political stakeholders and commentators, the senior special assistant on security to Governor Ibrahim Hassan Dankwambo of Gombe state, Alhaji Abdullahi Babangida Muhammad,  who dumped the PDP for the opposition, All Progressives Congress (APC), also decided to go the Obasanjo way.

Interestingly, another member of the party, Yunusa Halid, recently tore up his membership card, while announcing  his defection to the APC.
Halid, a youth leader in New Karu, Nassarawa state carried out the political ‘ritual’ in the presence of a large number of his followers.
