Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has labeled the governing All Progressives Congress (APC) a monumental failure, a party which he helped form and create.
Speaking during a two-day national convention of the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Abuja last weekend, Atiku said Nigeria has never been in such a bad shape.

According to Atiku, “PDP fought inflation to single-digit and stabilised the foreign exchange market which the APC destroyed with its cluelessness and incompetence.
“All through my life, I have never seen our dear country in such a bad shape. We have become so disunited, with so much unemployment and insecurity in the country.
“Nigeria is now at a precipice because of the lacklustre performance of the APC, but we now have the chance to atone for the mistakes of our past leadership, a chance to steer our country to its right position in the comity of nations.
“As humans, none of us is perfect and we will continue to strive to make our country better for the good of all Nigerians.
“The APC has proven itself to be incompetent and we are now ready to rescue, restore and rebuild the foundation of our beloved country.
“We have a collective aspiration to return Nigeria to the path of growth and development and I call on all members of our party and indeed, all well-meaning citizens of our great country to join us in this struggle.”
