Senator Sani Shehu, a former lawmaker representing Kaduna Central has blamed former President Muhammadu Buhari for the present economic woes facing the country.
Speaking to the Channels Television, Sani assert that some of the economic policies that President Bola Tinubu is implementing now which has triggered the economic hardship should have been implemented by Buhari who had failed to do so.
The ex-lawmaker went ahead to add that President Tinubu had only implemented the policies he had promised to implement during his campaign, therefore that the President did not deceive Nigerians.
In his words;
“We must be very factual and realistic with ourselves; the problem we find ourselves today, originated, was engineered, fabricated and sustained by the Buhari administration. The Buhari administration, institutionally, fundamentally destroyed the Nigerian economy,” said Sani
“When Tinubu took over, he knows there is not going to be subsidy and to be realistic, he was very frank during his campaign. He said, ‘I am going to remove subsidy and whatever protest that will come out of it I will not back down’ and then people went ahead and voted for him, so he has not deceived Nigerians. Now he is in power, we are paying the price for the mistake of the past, for the failure of the past and for what we have refused to do in the past, so this is the reality,” he said
