Hardship: Buhari Rolled Nigeria 50yrs Backward- Fayose
The Former Governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose of Ekiti State has said that former President, Muhammadu Buhari took Nigeria 50 years backward during his eight-year administration.
Fayose noted this during an interview on Channels Television’s Sunday Politics on Sunday, February 25.
The former governor said Buhari’s bad decisions are responsible for the current Economic hardship faced in the country.
Fayose, however, cautioned President Bola Tinubu to stop describing his predecessor as a blessing to Nigeria.
He said “he (Buhari) threw us back to 50 years of our history.”
Fayose described the Buhari government as one of “total regret, and today, the consequences of yesterday are manifesting, and it’s so disturbing and sad.
He said, “Look at the eight years of President Buhari, what would be left of a country like Nigeria as of today even if Tinubu means well? Where do we place the debts?”
Meanwhile, Fayose insisted that Tinubu’s performance has been impressive.
According to him, there is no miracle the current President, who was sworn in last May, could do in nine months.
Fayose said, “A lady who was a former minister of finance said very expressly that we service Nigeria’s debt with 83 per cent of our income.
“Considering what Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the President of Nigeria inherited and our diversity, put all these together, the gentleman is trying,” he said.
