Fayose advises Buhari to focus on economy instead of trips

– President Buhari lacks solutions to Nigeria’s dwindling economy

– Fayose called on Buhari to stop junketing and start focusing on Nigeria’s problems

– He claimed that everything worsened sice Buhari assumed the office of the president

Ayo Fayose, the governor of the Ekiti state, has advised President Muhammadu Buhari to focus more on the dwindling economy, saying that Nigerians are suffering.

The governor through his spokesman, Lere Olayinka, has raised alarm over the impending collapse of the county’s economy, adding that the Buhari’s government was yet to show any sign that it has any solution to the decrease of economy.

He asked Nigerians to pressure on the president to stay at home and rule Nigeria.

Fayose said: “Travelling from one country to another won’t solve any of our problems because I have not seen where foreigners assist any nation to develop. “The President should know that Nigerians are suffering and they do not need their President to junket around the world, to alleviate their sufferings. “It is worrisome that President Buhari does not have any economic team and there is no policy direction yet, despite spending close to nine months in office.” “The implication of the President’s obvious lack of the required mental capacity to tackle the nation’s economic problems and the resultant effects are human right abuses, prices of goods and services skyrocketing, daily retrenchment of workers, folding up of businesses, States finding it difficult to pay workers salary and the Federal Government not being able to prepare common budget,” he further added. The governor defined what is being experienced by Nigerians as the sum total of President Buhari’s mental capacity, saying that “With President Buhari, Nigeria is definitely having a square peg in its round hole. “Dollar has gone double since Dr Goodluck Jonathan left office, with US Dollar exchanging for N350 as at today, Foreign Reserve is declining on daily basis, Boko Haram insurgents have come back even stronger than they were when Buhari assumed office and Nigerians are now being made to pay more for electricity that is not available for them to use.
