“In my opinion, Nigerians will vote out APC in 2019 because they are complaining over the cost of living and the rate of poverty is on the increase", Yakasai said.
I don’t see how APC will win if they don’t manipulate the process. How much was a dollar last year, how much is it now? What about the cost of bag of rice, basket of tomatoes and others. Farmers are complaining about fertilizers but it was not like this when PDP was in power,” he added
Similarly, Rev. Fr. Ejike Mbaka has criticised President Muhammadu Buhariover his poor handling of the economic situation in the country.
Mbaka, who claimed that Nigeria is being attacked ferociously, said Buhari should know that there is trouble in the land.
He also warned the President to note that if things continue like this, nobody will vote for him in 2019.
