In view of cash crunches being experienced in different parts of the country, Barr Ismail Ahmed, who led the youth wing of the All Progressives Congress (APC) 2015 campaign organisation, has said that the ruling party is ready to welcome criticisms amid frustrations being expressed by some Nigerians.

According to Ceoafrica, Ahmed said this while addressing the youths at an interactive session organised by Citizens Support for Good Governance in Nigeria (SGGN).

The former chairman of the APC Youth Forum who said it was important for the party to act on its promises during the electioneering campaigns added that “as a government, we have to be open to criticism. Some people are not happy; people have to express their frustration and anger; we cannot and should not have a problem with that.

“We campaigned all through because I headed the youth wing during campaign. I knew from day one that it is not going to be an easy task. Even the President knew it won’t be an easy task. So, the responsibility is not for us to start promising anymore because we are two years into the administration.

“This administration has to be convinced by its own performance and not its own promises anymore. We have made promises during campaign, now we have to act on those promises and that is what the president will continue to do”, he said.
