The Special Adviser to President Bola Tinubu on information and strategy, Bayo Onanuga, has blasted former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, saying he is peddling economic fantasies and must purge himself of petty politics.
Recall that over the weeks, there have been exchanges between the presidency and Atiku after he proposed solutions to the country’s economic challenges.
The former vice president had last week said he could not be envious of Tinubu because he inflicts pain on Nigerians.
Onanuga, in a statement on Sunday, re-emphasized that Nigerians rejected Atiku and his ideas during the 2023 presidential election.
“Atiku’s critiques of Tinubu’s presidency are mere harebrained propositions devoid of realistic alternatives.
“He must reckon with the decades of mismanaged economy inherited by the current administration, including exorbitant subsidy expenditures far exceeding government earnings from crude oil,” he said.
According to the presidential aide, Atiku’s economic proposals fail to present a viable alternative to Tinubu’s decisive reforms, adding that the former vice president should repair his reputation as a statesman.
