Your Health, Not Nigeria’s Economy Has Improved, Labour Party Knocks Buhari

The Labour Party, LP has reacted to a statement by President Muhammadu Buhari that Nigeria’s economy is improving.

The President had made the statement while receiving briefing from his economic team on Monday.

The party, in a statement by its National Chairman, Alhaji Abdulkadir Salam said the president was definitely speaking of his health “which he thinks has improved.”

The party lamented that the state of the economy was bad as the cost of living has skyrocketed, unemployment was unbearable and inflation was high.

The party said, “The President was probably speaking about his own health, which he thinks has improved, and not the Nigerian economy.

“The President is not in a position to say that the economy has improved. When last did he go out of the Villa and when last did he interact with the common man?

“I’m sure he was not talking about the economy where the cost of living has skyrocketed, unemployment has reached unbearable level while inflation is also beyond what we can bear.

“So, help us tell him that he is wrong. He is not sure of the economy. He was speaking about his health and not the economy we are all seeing now.”
