Atiku’s response, contained in a statement by his campaign organisation, said while the minister was making a barren attempt to catalogue perceived achievements of the current APC administration, he did the unbelievable by claiming that the policy documents and proposals espoused by Atiku are a version of the economic blueprint of the APC.
“We were able to achieve these through a combination of budget increase and innovative infrastructure financing methods. In the area of power, he stated that former Vice President Atiku said ‘investments in additional generation capacity is futile without consideration for the complementary transmission and distribution infrastructure to wheel the additional energy’ and promised to propose legislation to, among others, give states the power to generate, transmit and distribute electricity.
“It is also amazing that His Excellency the former VP has not heard or read that the Senate has passed the electricity bill 2022 that would allow states to generate and distribute power as well as solve the sector’s challenges.” “The private sector is also involved in the ongoing infrastructure development through the Road Infrastructure Tax Credit Scheme, which I mentioned earlier.”
“That’s what you get from someone who leaves the country after losing an election, only to parachute into town when another election is due.”On his part, Atiku described the claims by Lai Mohammed as a tsunami of lie. He noted that Nigerians are more agreeable to the fact that the tenure of the APC has been nothing but a sheer waste of time, “all thanks to the catch-up economic strategy of the ruling party” that has left the people more malnourished, sick and disillusioned.
He said he was rather interested in preserving the sanity of the party and will stay back to fight for the enthronement of unity, inclusivity, equity and peace in the PDP.
