Elder statesman and chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Chief Ebenezer Babatope, has described the suffering of Nigerians under the leader of President Muhammadu Buhari-led government as very unbearable.
Babatope said, although, the APC-led government was trying in its fight against corruption, it has failed woefully to keep its campaign promises.
Speaking with Vanguard, the elder statesman said Buhari had shown himself to be a man of probity and a man of integrity, but that he should change his style so that Nigerians will stop suffering the way they were suffering now.
According to him, “This kind of suffering is a different one because every Nigerian is affected. They are asking us to pay N145 to buy a litre of petroleum, how many Nigerians can afford that? I agree with him on the removal of the oil subsidy; it is good and courageous for him to have done that. But to buy petrol for N145 is a crime against humanity and nobody will support that.”
