Recession Exit: APC UK Lauds Buhari, Osinbajo

361

The All Progressives Congress (APC) in the United Kingdom has described the emergence of the Nigeria from the recession as laudable and noteworthy.

“This is one of the best news coming out from Nigeria; I know that the administration is working tirelessly to restore the economy, now the result is out, it is official, we are no more in recession”, said Hon. Ade Omole, a party chieftain.

“Without mincing words, this is a turning point for our country; I congratulate President Muhammadu Buhari and Vice President (Prof.) Yemi Osinbajo on this giant stride. The fact is that APC did not take Nigeria into recession. Despite this fact, the party has laboured days and night to ensure that the country is back on economy growth radar; this shows that the duo has what it takes to Nigeria to the promise land.

From the figures reeled out today by National Bureau of Statistics (NBS), Nigerian economy has finally exited the recession, as data on the country’s gross domestic product (GDP) growth rate grew at 0.55 per cent in the second quarter (Q2) of 2017.

Omole further urges Nigerians to put aside politics and get behind the leadership of President Muhammadu Buhari who has shown reliability and sustenance in governance.

“President Muhammadu Buhari remains the best option for Nigeria today, his determination to bring out Nigeria out of the mud created by past administrations should be met with encouragement, Nigerians should value this administration, they are doing well, it is not easy to bring a Country out of recession most especially when it is self-inflicted like ours”.
