ENUGU, Nigeria (VOICE OF NAIJA)- The All Progressives Congress (APC) has fired back at critics of President Bola Tinubu, defending his administration’s reforms and governance record while insisting that tangible benefits are already being felt across the country.
The party’s position was contained in a statement issued on Saturday in Sokoto by Malam Yusuf Dingyadi, Senior Special Assistant on Media to the APC National Chairman, Nentawe Yilwatda.
Dingyadi accused opposition elements of orchestrating deliberate campaigns to undermine the administration, particularly through the use of social media platforms to circulate what he described as false and misleading narratives.
According to him, the spread of unverified reports and propaganda reflects political desperation by individuals who prioritise personal interests over national stability and collective progress.
He stressed that attempts to downplay the administration’s performance, especially regarding developments in northern Nigeria, should be condemned by well-meaning citizens.
Dingyadi argued that an objective assessment of the government’s performance reveals visible progress across key sectors, including security, infrastructure, agriculture, education, and healthcare delivery.

He noted that the Federal Government has rolled out several projects and reforms aimed at improving citizens’ welfare and driving long-term national development.
“The use of vulgar language, reckless criticism and the deliberate spread of false information is unacceptable, especially when the country is working hard to overcome the challenges inherited before President Tinubu assumed office,” he said.
The APC spokesman further maintained that the party’s National Working Committee, under Yilwatda, remains committed to supporting policies designed to strengthen the economy and enhance national security.
He added that the administration’s agenda also prioritises road construction, housing development, social intervention programmes, and expanded agricultural initiatives to boost food production and economic resilience.
Reiterating the party’s stance, Dingyadi said the APC would continue to defend what it described as the genuine achievements of the government while countering narratives aimed at distorting public perception.
He urged Nigerians to remain vigilant against politically motivated misinformation and called for support for ongoing reforms, noting that constructive engagement, rather than unfounded criticism, is essential for democratic growth and national unity.
