Adams Oshiomhole, a lawmaker of the Nigerian Senate, has said that Nigerians cannot expect President Bola Tinubu to fix Nigeria’s mismanaged economy within the period of 24 months that he has been in office.
Speaking during an interview with newsmen, the former governor of Edo State said the nation’s economy was mismanaged by past administrations.
While stating that he was not out to blame anyone for Nigeria’s bad economy, Oshiomhole said the worst is over for Nigerians.
“The kind of economy that was inherited by this government, and you expect that in 24 months, he (President Bola Tinubu) would have fixed all the whole problems and Nigeria would be back.
“Truly truly, this country was badly mismanaged, the economy was badly mismanaged. This is not to blame anyone but this is to speak to facts.
“So, I feel I can say that I think the worst is over,” Oshiomhole said.
He also said that Nigerians across the country would begin to experience the benefits of some of the policy reforms implemented by the Tinubu-led administration.
“We are going to begin to witness improvement in the quality of standard if living.
“I expect that all the other employers of labour who are benefitting from some of the courageous decisions that the president has taken would ensure that they pay a living wage,” the lawmaker added.
