Atiku Abubakar, the ex-Vice President, has urged the Federal Government to tackle the economic challenges faced by Nigerians in 2024. He conveyed this message in his New Year’s address to the nation, expressing gratitude to God while recognizing the difficulties of the past year and emphasizing the crucial lessons learned for the future.
“The rising cost of food items, goods and services, the malfunction in our national economy and the degenerating state of our national and community security are all existential challenges that we have to face squarely in the New Year,” Atiku said
He criticised the government’s “policy prescriptions,” stating, “Certainly, many families and businesses already know the intensity of the trying times that we are currently going through – though we could have taken a completely different pathway, had the government been smarter.”
Atiku called for a “well-thought vision of National Planning that will deliberately make the common people of Nigeria the centrepiece of our development.”
“The Year 2024 is still new on its canvas, and so there is ample time for the current government to champion a pathway to addressing the acute hardship that Nigerians are going through,” he continued.
He urged the government to “show a clear direction of its policy projections and desist from the subsisting behaviour of groping in the dark.”
