“How Buhari took Nigeria back by 50 years” — Fayose reveals

Ayodele Fayose, the former governor of Ekiti, has said that former President Muhammadu Buhari took Nigeria to 50 years backward and should not be considered as a blessing to the country.

Fayose made the statement during an interview on Channels Television on Sunday, expressing his belief that the administration of Buhari set Nigeria back by 50 years in terms of its history.

Over the past few months, Nigerians have been battling economic hardship as the prices of food and other basic items have skyrocketed.

Protests over the economic hardship have taken place in some parts of the country.

On February 16, the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) declared a nationwide mass protest for February 27 and 28, over the economic hardship in the country.

Reacting to the development, Fayose said Tinubu inherited a “dead economy” adding that there is little the president can do to revive the situation within nine months.

The former Ekiti governor accused the Buhari-led administration of destroying the country’s economy.

Fayose said Buhari obtained loans that would be repaid by unborn children.

He asked Tinubu to stop praising Buhari in order not to confuse Nigerians about the “mess” created by the former president.

“Look at the eight years of President Muhammadu Buhari, what will be left of a country like Nigeria as of today?” he asked.

“Even if Tinubu means well, where do you place the debt? Even if Tinubu wants to do the magic, how will he fix the country? There were loans taken in Buhari’s administration, some with 20 to 50 years moratorium.

“Unborn children will face the kind of situation the last administration has plunged this country into.

“The only thing I want to say to President Tinubu is that, without fear or favour, he should stop praising former President Buhari.

“I watched a live television programme of the president telling Nigerians that former President Buhari did well.

“That will cause confusion in the minds of Nigerians. Yes, he is a member of our party and a leader.

“There are so many presentations we can make without celebrating a man who has put Nigerians in this predicament.

“There are things you should not say. You can visit, love, and appreciate him, which is personal to the president.

“With all due respect, do not come to the television to say that former President Buhari was a blessing to Nigeria.

“Buhari is not a blessing to Nigerians, with all due respect. President Buhari is not a blessing to Nigeria, he drew us back to 50 years of our history.”
