The Edo State governor, Mr. Godwin Obaseki, on Monday,24 October said the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has done incalculable damage to Nigeria by the country’s rising debt profile, which he said,has hit N60 trillion.
He warned that Nigeria will complete collapse should Bola Tinubu, the All Progressives Congress, APC, be elected to govern the country.
Obaseki who made these assertions in Benin on Monday at the formal inauguration of Edo State Campaign Management Team of the PDP, said the party must win the 2023 elections in order to rescue the country from the ruling APC.
Obaseki asserted: “God forbid APC comes into power, this country will break; this country will fail, it has already fail, because no government has ever done the kind of damage the APC has done to this country.
“As I speak today, the debt of this country is going to N60 trillions. When are we going to come out of it. Everyday, every month, they are printing and printing money to pay salaries. When I cried out years ago, I never knew it was as bad as this. What will happen to the Naira,only God will help us. They (APC) has destroyed the basis of this country.
“APC is threatening the coexistence of this country, but by the grace of God, when we come into power, we will revive this country, we will reduce the difference among our people in this country. We will make this country what it ought to be.
Obaseki, who is the Edo State Chairman of PDP Presidential Campaign Council, urged the ten-man team to make every thing possible to make sure Atiku emerges victorious at the the 2023 elections and rescue the country from APC, adding that the party must also win majority of the National Assembly seats.
“Whatever scarifice we must make, we must make it to change the fortune of this country. This election is an essential one for us. This election is very important to us as a government because we cannot be at the opposition, opposition is very useless,” he added.
He further urged the team to start working at the ward level to make sure everything is intact, adding that election has become scientific to an extent that it is very difficult to manipulate
