Former Vice President of Nigeria, Atiku Abubakar, Sunday, attacked President Bola Tinubu again, asking him to showcase any concrete policy steps his administration is taking to contain the crises of currency fluctuation and poverty facing the country.
The former presidential candidate of the main opposition, Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) said this in a statement made available to Blueprint in Abuja.
He insisted that wrong policies of the Tinubu administration have continued to cause untold pain and distress on the economy, saying “the rest of us cannot keep quiet when, clearly, the government has demonstrated sufficient poverty of ideas to redeem the situation”.
He was quoted further as advising President and the All Progressives Congress (APC), saying:“I firmly believe that if and when the government is ready to open itself to sound counsels, as well as control internal bleedings occasioned by corruption and poorly negotiated foreign loans, the Nigerian economy would begin to find a footing again.
“After a careful assessment of the state of our economy at the twilights of the last administration, I knew full well that the economy of the country was heading for the ditch and came up with a number of policy prescriptions that would rescue the country from getting into the mess that we are currently in,” Atiku added.
