The Presidential candidate on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Atiku Abubakar, has stated that Nigeria is penniless under the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Atiku who made this known on Tuesday at the Lagos Chamber of Commerce & Industry as he was explaining his Economic Agenda for the Country if he becomes President, noted that Nigeria had been running on Budget Deficits since the APC came to power in 2015.

“Nigeria is broke. Nigeria under the APC-led Government has consistently run on Budget deficits since it came to power in 2015. These budget deficits are often above the 3% threshold permissible under the Fiscal Responsibility Law.”
