The presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, Atiku Abubakar, has said that Nigeria is broke under the All Progressives Congress.
Atiku said Nigeria had been running on budget deficits since the APC came to power in 2015.
Atiku said these at the Lagos Chamber of Commerce & Industry on Tuesday as he was rolling out his economic agenda for the country if he eventually won the 2023 elections.
He said, “Nigeria is broke. Nigeria under the APC-led government has consistently run on budget deficits since it came to power in 2015. These budget deficits are often above the 3% threshold permissible under the Fiscal Responsibility Law.”
