BUHARI RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS ECONOMIC HARDSHIP - PROF UTOMI

 



A political economist, Prof Pat Utomi has claimed all the things he said would happen to Nigeria have happened. Prof Utomi said this while reacting to the current economic hardship in the country.


Speaking on Kaakaki, a programme on AIT, Prof Utomi said all those who should have joined him to avert his prediction were waiting for one thing or the other from the Muhammadu Buhari administration until that administration crippled the country.


He said, “Look, I want to focus on how Nigeria can move forward but it's hard not to feel like I told you so. A couple of weeks after General Buhari was sworn in, I was speaking at the launching of the Ibadan school of government and public policy. And the things I said will happen to Nigeria have happened. All those who should have joined at that time were waiting for something to fall to them from General Buhari. They were waiting for their turn. They were waiting for this, they were waiting for that.


And progressively, General Buhari crippled Nigeria and brought us to the point where we are even thinking more wrong policies in responding to the damage of the Buhari era. Now if we only look at things bearing in mind that we will be judged, whether we like it or not everybody has judgement coming to them. First there is the judgement of our conscience, second there is the judgement of history and ultimately there is the judgement of God."
