Ekiti State Governor Ayodele Fayose has urged politicians that brought President Muhammadu Buhari as the president of the country to beg God for forgiveness.He alleged that Nigeria’s economy under the All Progressives Congress-led Federal Government had brought untold hardship to Nigerians. Fayose stated this at a meeting of the Osoko Mass Movement attended by representatives of labour unions, civil servants and public institutions in the state.He said: “People that brought Buhari must seek repentance. The Transparency International said corruption had become worse among Nigerians.”In a related vein, Niger Delta youths, under the aegis of Pan Niger Delta Youth Leadership Forum (PANDLEAF), have again lamented that perennial leadership failure has unleashed sorrow, hunger and under-development on the people. It said the situation was unacceptable, curious, unthinkable, unfortunate and worrisome considering the trillions of naira that had been appropriated to the region by the Federal Government through the state governments and intervention agencies. In another development, a newly-registered party, Action Peoples Party (APP), has lamented failure in the areas of economy, security, infrastructure, adherence to rule of law, among others.
