In a recent interview on Channels TV's Politics Today, Felix Morka, the All Progressives Congress (APC) Publicity Secretary, defended President Bola Tinubu's economic policies, attributing the current economic challenges to generational issues. Morka highlighted the historical reliance on a single item in Nigeria's economy since independence as a root cause of the problems faced today.
According to Morka, the economic struggles faced by Nigerians have deep-seated roots, and the current administration is working to address these longstanding issues. He emphasized that both former Presidents Muhammadu Buhari and Goodluck Jonathan also grappled with generational economic challenges, emphasizing the need for a diversified income approach in the country.
Morka acknowledged the fluctuations in oil production over different administrations and pointed out the efforts of the current government in tackling systemic issues. While addressing concerns about the international marketplace, he noted that there is no quick fix to the challenges faced by the Nigerian economy.
The APC's defense comes amidst public criticism of the rising cost of living in Nigeria, prompting further discussions on the efficacy of President Tinubu's economic strategies and the need for comprehensive solutions to address generational economic challenges.
