NIGERIANS YEARN FOR CHANGE NOT APC

By AYODELE SEUN

Since the announcement of General Muhammadu Buhari as the winner of presidential election, APC stewards  has been celebrating their victory, red carpet was rolled at the National secretariat of All Progressive Congress(APC) and party chieftains came from across the country to felicitate with the president-elect on his victory.
Nigerians propelled the change of government through their voting power because Nigerians are tired of failed promises and inability of PDP led government to address unemployment, corruption, decayed of infrastructures and insecurity. PDP led government failed to listen to the yearning of the masses but keep enriching the high class in the expense of the masses.
The voting pattern across the country may take sectionalism, religion and region but the real fact is that Nigerians want change and they voted for change, at least the voting pattern in North central showed clearly Nigerians want change, APC won overwhelmingly in a region where they only control Nassarawa state before defection of Kwara state governor. APC have landslide victory in a state like Benue,Kogi and Niger state in all the category of elections conducted (Presidential, national assembly, gubernatorial and house of assembly elections) these are the states control by PDP but their governors failed to deliver dividend of democracy, they failed woefully, Workers has suffered unpaid salaries in Benue state while in Kogi and Niger state the people are not feeling the impact of governance.But reverse is the case in the state like Nassarawa, Imo and  Gombe states where state government have done wonderfully well and that is why they have been reelected for second term.
The APC should stop attributing victory to themselves and their party chieftains, APC served as the plat form in which change is been achieved but is Nigerians that actually yearn for change because of the undoing of PDP led administration.

General Muhammadu Buhari and APC led administration should deliver on their promises or else Nigerians with their PVC will still yearn for change after four years.
