Amaechi Promises Resignation if Nigeria Lacks Improvement Under Atiku

Rotimi Amaechi, the vice-presidential candidate for the African Democratic Congress (ADC), has stated that he will resign if Nigerians do not see positive changes within one year of the party taking power. He shared these views during an interview on NewsCentral TV.

Amaechi expressed confidence that under the leadership of Atiku Abubakar, the presidential candidate, Nigerians would appreciate the government’s efforts within its first year. He believes that people will regret not voting for Atiku sooner.

He outlined some proposed economic policies, including a production subsidy aimed at lowering petrol prices by making crude oil available to local refiners at a cheaper rate. Amaechi explained that refiners would need to pass these savings on to consumers.

In addition to economic plans, Amaechi emphasized the need to support Nigerian farmers and reduce reliance on imported food. He mentioned that investing in agriculture could create jobs and help address insecurity in the country.

While he acknowledged that not every issue could be resolved within a year, Amaechi insisted that Nigerians should start to feel a positive difference. He reiterated his commitment to resign if there is no sign of improvement.

The ADC is facing a leadership crisis, following a court ruling that declared the current caretaker committee illegal. Despite this, Amaechi confirmed that the party will continue its political activities and appeal the ruling.
