(DDM) – The Rotimi Amaechi Mobilization Team (RAMT) has challenged presidential spokesman Bayo Onanuga to present what it calls “the full truth” regarding the controversy over a disputed tax policy and comments made by former minister Rotimi Amaechi.
RAMT issued the demand while reacting to Onanuga’s accusation that Amaechi misled Nigerians about a tax law that could allegedly affect financial transactions and living costs.
The team stated that Onanuga should clarify the government’s real tax intentions instead of dismissing concerns raised by opposition figures.
RAMT argued that citizens deserve transparent explanations on fiscal policies that could influence business survival, housing costs, and disposable income.
According to RAMT, the current debate reflects deeper anxieties among Nigerians over rising prices, unemployment, and security worries across several regions.
The group maintained that Amaechi spoke out to stimulate public awareness, not to create panic.
RAMT emphasized that policy debates strengthen democracy when officials answer questions directly.
The team added that dismissing criticism as falsehoods without detailed clarification weakens public trust.
RAMT insisted that many Nigerians already feel pressure from inflation and taxation, making any discussion about new tax rules highly sensitive.
The mobilization team urged the presidency to publish simple explanations of any proposed tax frameworks so citizens and small businesses can prepare responsibly.
The group also encouraged voters to examine economic policies closely ahead of future elections.
The group described Amaechi as a leader with administrative experience who understands public finance and infrastructure development.
RAMT repeated that Amaechi’s record in public office shows capacity and competence.
The team called on Nigerians to remain alert to how government decisions affect daily life.
RAMT further argued that open dialogue between government and opposition benefits national stability.
Diaspora Digital Media notes that tax policy debates often trigger strong reactions because they connect directly to household welfare.
Analysts say governments worldwide face scrutiny when introducing or amending tax systems.
RAMT concluded by asking Onanuga to “tell Nigerians the truth in clear terms” about the tax matters under discussion.
The group said it will continue civic engagement campaigns to educate voters on economic issues.
RAMT reaffirmed its support for Amaechi and encouraged peaceful political participation.
Observers note that exchanges like this highlight growing political positioning as future elections approach.
DDM confirms that the discussion continues to generate reactions among party supporters and policy watchers nationwide.
