Alhaji Attahiru Bafarawa, who happens to be the former Sokoto State governor, during an interview with The Punch, shared his thoughts on the nation’s democracy and economic situation, among other issues.
When he was talking on the quick measures that can be taken to ameliorate the pain the people are going through, as a result of the economic downturn since palliative failed to solve the problem of the subsidy removal, Bafarawa said that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, just announced the removal of fuel subsidy but it was the Muhammadu Buhari’s government that removed the fuel subsidy.
He said, “So, Muhammadu Buhari knows the benefits of surplus oil money, and when Abacha was getting the surplus, he was putting the money in the Petroleum Trust Fund (PTF).
At least, Muhammadu Buhari should have copied from what a military leader had done. Being a military leader and politician, he should have done something better than everybody.”
Further talking, he said, “What (Chief Olusegun) Obasanjo did as a President remains the best so far. I still believe that he (Obasanjo) is the best leader from 1999 to date. I am not talking about the era of Awolowo and Co. Obasanjo’s administration tried its best for Nigerians.”..……See More
