Atiku says Tinubu lacks a well-thought-out economic plan.

Atiku Abubakar, a former PDP presidential candidate, criticized President Bola Tinubu on Monday for his economic policies.

Atiku expressed dissatisfaction with Tinubu’s chaotic “bolekaja” economic policy recommendations.

According to him, Tinubu’s government is based on a “Tea-plan, which can only lead to a T-pain.”

“I have taken note of the initial responses highlighting the striking disparity between President Tinubu’s faltering economic policies and the alternatives I have proposed,” Atiku stated in a statement that he personally signed. It is thrilling to see such a heated discussion on these important issues, and I genuinely hope that Nigeria and its people will gain something from this discussion in the end.

Like many of my fellow Nigerians, I am convinced that the reason we are currently experiencing economic unrest is to the Tinubu administration’s fast rise to power without a clear strategy.

In sharp contrast, my team made sure that our strategy was inclusive and well-thought-out by not only creating a thorough Recovery Plan but also soliciting valuable feedback from Nigerians.

Isn’t it intriguing that the First Lady and the NSA appear to be leading a national prayer as the sole policy response from the so-called “tested” Tinubu administration? Only twenty-four hours after I put forth my substitute solutions! What a daring plan.

According to my modest reading of the Bible, prayer is a noble course of action. Nonetheless, the sacred books also advise us to work hard and diligently.

Therefore, it is uncharitable for Tinubu’s staff to assert that my recommendations are still relevant. not tested. Our current situation is explained by the unpredictable, trial-and-error character of the policies this administration has so far put into place.

Remember that Nigeria skyrocketed to the top of Africa’s economies under our economic leadership from 1999 to 2003, but their administration has demoted us to a depressing fourth place.

In contrast to the pitiful 2.8% of the so-called “tested” Tinubu era, the average GDP rate under the Obasanjo government, which I worked in, was 6.59% and reached a pinnacle of 15% in 2002; it was 7.98% during the late Yar’Adua administration and 4.8% during Jonathan’s. The chaotic “bolekaja” economic policy recommendations are enough.
