A member of the House of Representatives, Eta Mbora (PDP-Cross River), says President Muhammadu Buhari’s regime is clueless about running Nigeria.

Speaking with journalists Tuesday in Calabar, Mr Mbora, who represents Odukpani/Calabar Municipal, said the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) remained the better option to reset the nation’s “bleeding economy.”

“It is obvious and better known to the people that the President Muhammadu Buhari-led APC government has no clue on how to better the country, which was why they launched a serious propaganda to oust PDP from power in 2015,” he said.

The lawmaker, who expressed concern over the nation’s poverty level, the spate of kidnappings and banditry, noted that only PDP could address the nation’s challenges.

According to him, the ruling APC failed to implement half of the promises it used to “deceive Nigerians” in 2015

He added that Nigerians should remain vigilant as the APC will come out with other antics to deceive them again.

“I’m sure Nigerians must have by now learnt bitter lessons from the deceitful party called APC. My appeal to the people is to be wary of them (APC) as 2023 approaches again,” said Mr Mbora. “I personally see them coming out stronger this time with antics to again deceive the people into giving them another chance.”

Mr Mbora further explained that there was no alternative to the PDP, claiming records show the PDP as the best party to lead the country in 2023.

Mr Mbora, seeking re-election for the Odukpani/Calabar Municipal federal constituency seat, said he remained committed to improving the lot of his constituents if reelected in 2023.
