‘It’s too early to say APC has failed,’ Buhari’s aide says

He made the comment on Tuesday, May 23, while addressing journalists at the Presidential Villa in Abuja.

Adesina also said that the APC administration still has two years left in its first term to prove itself.

“The person that asked the question said there is a buzz in town. I am sure that you have not conducted a scientific survey that shows you that is a popular position. People can always express their opinions; there is liberty on that but you don’t have a scientific survey that has given you the percentage of people that believed that the APC has failed,” he said according to The Nation.

“Like the minister of transportation said recently, the APC did not promise to solve all the country’s problems in one year or two years. This administration will take Nigeria far beyond how it met it. So if anybody says APC has failed, just tell them it is too early in the day because it is a four-year term and this is just two years. You don’t reach definitive conclusions in two years,” he added.
