Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Former presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Atiku Abubakar, on Monday tackled President Bola Tinubu over his economic policies.<\/p>\n

Atiku said enough of Tinubu\u2019s shambolic \u201cbolekaja\u201d economic policy prescriptions.<\/p>\n

He said that Tinubu\u2019s administration is anchored to a mere \u201cTea-plan, which can only lead to a T-pain.\u201d<\/p>\n

In a statement he personally signed, Atiku said: \u201cI have taken note of the initial responses highlighting the striking disparity between President Tinubu\u2019s faltering economic policies and the alternatives I have proposed. It is exciting to witness such a vigorous debate on these critical matters, and I sincerely hope that this discourse will ultimately benefit Nigeria and its citizens.<\/p>\n

\u201cLike many fellow Nigerians, I firmly believe that we find ourselves in this current economic turmoil due to the Tinubu administration\u2019s hasty ascent to power, devoid of a coherent plan.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn stark contrast, my team not only devised a comprehensive Recovery Plan, but also welcomed significant input from Nigerians, ensuring that our approach was inclusive and well-considered.<\/p>\n

\u201cIsn\u2019t it fascinating how the so-called \u201ctested\u201d Tinubu administration\u2019s only policy response seems to be a national prayer led by the First Lady and the NSA? Just a mere 24 hours after I proposed my alternative solutions! What a bold strategy.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn my humble interpretation of the scriptures, prayer indeed serves as a noble path to follow. However, the sacred texts also counsel us to engage in diligent labour and hard work.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is therefore uncharitable for Tinubu\u2019s team to claim that my proposals remain untested. What remains unproven is the erratic, trial-and-error nature of the policies so far implemented by this administration, which elucidates our present predicament.<\/p>\n

\u201cLet us not forget that under our economic stewardship between 1999-2003, Nigeria soared to the pinnacle of Africa\u2019s economies, while their administration has relegated us to a disheartening fourth position.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe average GDP rate under the Obasanjo administration that I served in was 6.59% and peaked at 15% in 2002; 7.98% under the late Yar\u2019Adua administration and 4.8% under Jonathan compared to the dismal 2.8% of the so-called \u201ctested\u201d Tinubu era. Enough of the pains of the shambolic \u201cbolekaja\u201d economic policy prescriptions.\u201d<\/p>\n
