With great Hope Nigerians rejected the PDP and approved the APC in 2015.
They were expecting life more abundant, they were enthusiastic about new but positive vista of life in all ramifications.
They could not have wished for an upright man than Muhammadu Buhari, the virgin in the maternity ward of corruption.
Five years down the lane, having had their mandate renewed for another four years that terminate in 2023 May, the APC powered government still is not showing clear direction on how to impact in the ordinary people’s daily life.
Even their election platform based on three pedestals have been lack lustre or to put it more forcefully, it has been very uninspiring. The APC anchored their platform on Economy, Security and fight against corruption, but the best they must have thought they put has not been good enough.
Ordinary Nigerians are hungry and very angry; they feel betrayed. One will not bet on a wrong horse were election to be held today, the APC would most certainly lose because Nigerians will blow off steam.
If the first four years is excusable, the APC got to get the hang of it this time around; if they cannot provide the ingredients of their three major campaign promises, they can choose on infrastructure.
If they can embark on super highways to connect the 36 states of the federation, it will be an enduring legacy, if they can complete and make functional major railway projects they have embarked upon, history might be kind on them.
To expect miracle in poverty alleviation, to expect solutions to near comatose economy, and to wish a sudden disappearance to terror and all kinds of criminality is tantamount to waiting for a flying pig.
