A stslwart of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ekiti State, Chief Jide Awe has lamented that the achievements of President Muhammadu Buhari-led government are being dwarfed by the myriad of challenges confronting the nation.
He also suggested the entrenchment of rotational presidency in Nigeria’s constitution to curb the recurring agitations by various zones ahead of every general election year.
Awe said in Ado Ekiti that the federal government had done well in the area of railway construction, provision of infrastructural facilities and other sectors but that the worsening insecurity, economy and corruption are the bane of the government.
“Whatever might be the achievements in so many areas of governance since the era of APC, they might have been dwarfed by insecurity. It has marred some of what we are branding as achievements, like railway construction, infrastructural facilities and others, which are being destroyed by the bandits.
“This is the key problem militating against the government which we think the federal government should be able to handle”.
The former Ekiti State APC chairman, who posited that the economy has been terribly managed, said corruption is also rearing its ugly head in the society.
“Though the government has been trying its best to turn things around, the issue of corruption which has been the key focal point of the Buhari administration has no solution yet because corruption has bedeviled the nation’s economy and crippled it. So some achievements recorded in the economic sector has been rubbished by the level of corruption in the country,” he said.
