He stated this while speaking at an event on Wednesday, a video of which was posted by News Central on its X handle.
The former Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) governor noted that although the economy was suffering as a result of poor management contributed by previous governments, President Tinubu‘s government should explain its policies.
His words: “To be honest, I can stand here today and I can give a few points that are contrary, a few points that explain, perhaps, what we’re going through and how it was totally predictable, most of it, and maybe avoidable, but I’m not going to do that.
“I’ve chosen not to speak about the economy and the reforms, or to even explain anything, because if I explain, it would help this government, and I don’t want to help the government. I don’t want to help this government.
“You know, they’re my friends. If they don’t behave like friends, I don’t behave like a friend. So I watch them being stewed, and they don’t even have people with credibility who can come and explain what they’re doing. But I’m not going to help. I started out helping, but I’m not going to help. I’m not going to discuss it.
“Let them come and explain to Nigerians why the policies that have been pursued have been pursued. And meanwhile, I’m watching a very nice movie with popcorn in my hands. I’m watching them stew.
“But I will say one thing. What we’re going through today is at least in part, not totally, at least in part, a necessary consequence of decades of irresponsible economic management.”
