Barrister Solomon Dalung, former Minister of Youth and
Sports, has said that the ruling party, the All Progressives Congress (APC) has
failed woefully to live up to the expectations of Nigerians who truly desire
positive change in all spheres of life since 2015.
He added that Nigerians are disappointed with what the
APC-led government has offered to them.
Speaking to BBC Hausa at the official launch of “The New
Movement” in Abuja, Dalung observed that the ruling party failed woefully to
deliver on its promises to Nigerians since its inception.
He served during the first tenure of President Muhammadu
Buhari-led government from 2015 to 2019.
He lamented that instead of the government improving from
where the past government left, the APC-led government deteriorated the
existing situation and added to the citizens’ sufferings in all spheres of
life.
According to the fromer Minister, “The truth must be told
that the APC as a party did not fulfil the promises it made to Nigerians.”
He noted that Nigerians now find themselves with security
challenges such as killings of innocent people, kidnapping, displacing people
and worst still, people cannot access their farms as well as other means of
livelihood.
Dalung explained that it is not their own selfish interest
that inspired the formation of the movement, but it is for the interest of the
people and for the wellbeing of the country.
The former Minister said that anything that would bring
peace and will elevate Nigerians from the current situation is a welcome idea
and this is one of the reasons for forming the movement.
