A chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in Imo State, Stanley Ekezie, says the prevailing economic hardship across Nigeria is due to the choice the electorate made in the last general election.
Ekezie stated this in an interview with newsmen in Owerri, the state capital, adding that Nigerians collected peanuts from politicians in exchange for good governance.
“Blame Nigeria’s electorate for the current economic crisis. Nigerians prefer to take peanuts in lieu of good governance,” he stated.
According to him, during the last election, there was massive vote buying and voters were busy collecting money and allowing politicians to rig themselves into government.
He said Nigerians lamenting the economic hardship should have known that their wrong choices would result in difficult times.
The former aspirant for Okigwe North Federal Constituency said nothing would change on the economic front as long as Nigerians continue to elect unqualified people into public offices.
“The situation will persist so long as the wrong people continue to occupy the seat of power.
“2027 is another opportunity for Nigerians to choose the best leaders,” he said.
