ADC Criticizes FG’s Reforms as Politically Motivated

The African Democratic Congress (ADC) has slammed the Federal Government’s (FG’s) recent reforms, calling them a political stunt ahead of the 2027 elections.

ADC’s spokesperson Mallam Bolaji Abdullahi accused President Tinubu’s administration of prioritizing image management over real solutions to Nigeria’s crises.

In a Sunday statement, the party sharply criticized presidential aide Bayo Onanuga’s tweet about food security plans.

Abdullahi argued that the announcement revealed years of deliberate inaction, during which Nigerians endured suffering.

He explained that these reforms are driven by panic over opposition gains, not compassion or national interest.

Furthermore, the ADC contended that the ruling APC ignored urgent issues until opposition momentum forced their response.

Abdullahi emphasized that the government only acts when threatened, not when citizens are starving or in need.

He bluntly stated that hunger did not motivate them; fear of losing in 2027 was the real reason for their actions.

According to the party, Tinubu’s team has shifted focus from governance to early campaigning.

Abdullahi described the reforms as staged optics aimed at perception, not genuine crisis management.

He claimed every recent policy now targets voter perception rather than fostering national recovery.

The statement also warned Nigerians against trusting what it called “scripted government announcements.”

Abdullahi urged citizens to recognize the desperation driving these sudden reforms.

He emphasized that this is not leadership but damage control designed to deceive the public.

Finally, the ADC pledged to continue challenging superficial policies while advocating for meaningful, long-term change in the country.

The party demanded transparency, condemning what it termed poverty weaponization for political survival.

As inflation and hunger worsen, the ADC’s outcry reflects deepening public frustration. With elections approaching, such critiques may reshape Nigeria’s political landscape.

The party’s bold stance spotlights growing skepticism about government motives. Whether this sparks real accountability or fades as election noise remains uncertain.

Nigeria’s opposition now faces a critical test—converting anger into actionable alternatives that resonate with suffering citizens.

The coming months will reveal if ADC’s claims gain traction or drown in political rhetoric.

Meanwhile, ordinary Nigerians continue bearing the brunt of economic turmoil, their patience wearing thin as leaders debate motives.

The ADC’s intervention adds fuel to an already volatile national conversation about governance priorities.

This confrontation signals potentially turbulent times ahead for Nigerian politics, with opposition parties sharpening their critiques and the government scrambling to defend its record.

The battle for public trust has clearly begun in earnest.

With living conditions deteriorating, political maneuvers appear increasingly disconnected from citizens’ daily struggles.

The ADC’s challenge now is to offer more than criticism—it must present credible solutions that address the nation’s deepening crisis.

As the 2027 elections draw nearer, such exchanges will likely intensify, setting the stage for one of Nigeria’s most contentious political battles in recent memory.

The coming years will test whether opposition voices can translate discontent into meaningful political change.
