The 14th Emir of Kano, Muhammadu Sanusi II, has reportedly said that the Buhari-led administration treated the economy without recourse to experts advice. According to Daily Trust, the former governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), who stated this in a video message in Hausa, said that some ”sycophants” that surrounded Buhari, exploited the system, bought dollars at N400 and sold at N540, adding that an inexperienced boy owned a jet under the past administration. He said borrowing had crippled Nigerias economy, urging the citizens to be patient with the current administration led by President Bola Tinubu, the report added. The last eight years, Nigeria led a false life, the government borrowed from within and without. About N30 trillion was borrowed from the Central Bank, he said. “All the revenue the country generated in the last few years couldnt service debt. Debt service exceeded 100 per cent. Government borrowed to service debts. No country can grow this way. Time will come when one cannot borrow any more. Additionally there will be nothing to pay debts. “Those writing, demanding that we speak on the current situation in the country; this is not the right time for me to speak. It was like a driver on the road driving recklessly despite a wise counsel telling him of a crater ahead. What will you tell after plunging the car into the hole? “People refused to listen to us then. We will only now advise them to be patient. I will never say Tinubu has pushed Nigeria into difficulty. I am not saying he is flawless or flawed. We will speak when he goes astray. The government cant pay subsidies since it doesnt have the means. “If they add tax, we have to pay since borrowing is impossible. If the CBN printed more naira, the dollar would jack up to N1,500. We must suffer. When I was the CBN governor it was N150. Today its somewhere around N900. They treated the economy the way they wanted and refused to listen to experts.
