Ekiti State Governor, Ayo Fayose has accused President Muhammadu Buhari of chasing foreign investors out of Nigeria by painting the country in a bad light.
Fayose also said that Buhari is destroying everything that makes Nigeria a country.
The governor made the comments via a statement issued by his media aide, Lere Olayinka.
The statement reads:
“Our
president, through his actions and inactions is destroying everything
that makes Nigeria a country and well-meaning Nigerians must stand-up to
be counted in the crusade to save the country from going under.”
“Nigerians
must begin to speak out now before the country is totally destroyed by
this one-man government, which does not see any idea coming from those
perceived as opposed to the government as worthy of consideration.
“President
Buhari went to foreign countries to de-market Nigeria by calling all
Nigerians thieves and dishonest people. Which foreign investor will
invest his money in a country of dishonest people? Who made investors to
leave Nigeria if not President Buhari, who created atmosphere of
economic and political instability in the country by his acts of
nepotism and vindictiveness?
“Nigerians will not
measure his government on the basis of what his predecessors failed to
do, but on what he does or neglected to do between May 29, 2016 and May
29, 2019.
“President Buhari has not only taken
Nigeria to economic recession, he has moved the country to economic
depression and nepotism has prevented him from engaging the best hands
in the All Progressives Congress (APC).
“No nation
has ever reached greatness by their leaders engaging in blame game,
nepotism and vengeance as being done by President Buhari and his APC
government.
“Like I said before, the main issue
confronting Nigerians now is hunger and hunger does not speak the
language of politics. It is therefore no longer about politics; it is
about preventing hunger from killing Nigerians.”
“The
federal government should stop deceiving Nigerians with stories of
injecting funds into the economy. The economic problems facing the
country has gone beyond talks of injecting N350 billion into the economy
through execution of capital projects.
“If they
inject even N500 billion into the economy by paying contractors
executing federal government capital projects, how does that affect the
price of rice and other food items? How does it affect the price of
basic drugs?
“Instead of unsustainable measures,
what President Buhari should do is to bring economic experts in the
country together not-minding their political and ethnic affiliations so
that they can proffer lasting solutions to the country’s economic
problems,” he added.
