A former member of the House of Representatives, Usman Bugaje, has stated that President Bola Tinubu is incapable of addressing the numerous challenges facing the country as he has no solution to offer.

Nigeria has been grappling with economic hardship for eight months now since the fuel subsidy payment was stopped and the naira floated.

While speaking on Channels TV, Bugaje said;

”Today, it is everybody’s knowledge that Bola Tinubu has no solutions to the problems of this country….his government has failed to address the most essential issues. We had expected that when the new government took over,  we were expecting that he would surround himself with expertise. We were expecting that for him to have announced the removal of the fuel subsidy, he must have had a plan – something that would address the consequences of that. You don’t make a policy without looking at the consequences and preparing to cushion the effect of that. But apparently, he did that without preparation.”

Bugaje blamed Tinubu’s advisers for not telling the president the truth about the state of the country.

“I can see a lot of sycophancy around him (Tinubu). People are not engaging him. They are not telling him the truth and he seems to be very comfortable with the kind of people he has around him who don’t seem to have any ideas in their heads. They don’t seem to have any solutions to the problems that we have and they are always trying to find excuses.” he said
