The cleric made this known in an interview with Sun Newspaper, added that “Dr. Goodluck Jonathan did not hand-over an economy in recession and at the time he handed over to him, we were not in recession.” His Words: Those who understood our economy managed it until Nigeria became the largest economy in Africa not long ago. It is a pity that this administration has run down the economy because they were not prepared for governance. I am not too sure that they had the mindset of winning the election. For instance, delays in cabinet appointments and other inactions and policy summersaults, were clear evidence that Buhari was not ready for leadership. The economy is in a very bad state because all the policies that were put on ground could not make the economy pick up immediately. My prayer is that this year, he will listen to the advice of people committed to the unity and progress of this country; not people with divisive tendencies. I make bold to say that Dr. Goodluck Jonathan did not hand-over an economy in recession and at the time he handed over to him, we were not in recession. Unfortunately, Buhari failed to take the right steps at the very beginning of his administration, hence we are now deep into economy recession. He should engage capable hands to help him run his government. He should act fast to save the poor masses, because an economy that is in recession for too long will eventually graduate into depression if not properly handled. The money to finance the N7.2 trillion budget is not even there, so, on that front alone, the budget is a failure. I studied economics and I know that budgets could be run on credit. For us to talk about borrowing money, either locally or from foreign sources to run our budget in 2017, shows how our leaders are. It is not a budget that is going to bring any positive change; at best, it will bring change to increase the pains of Nigerians. We have a president who came in with the change mantra but unfortunately for Nigerians, the change is in the negative. Sadly, the clamp down on judges is one of the manifestations of the change. You can’t wake up overnight and try to make people at the level of judges look common, because they are not. What are you looking for that will make you raid the house of a judge in a Gestapo-style in an ungodly hour? I haven’t seen any fight against corruption, I have only see the dramatization of a pre-conceived mindset. That is, to embarrass a few persons and put fear in the minds of a great number of people, particularly the opposition. What President Buhari has done so far cannot by any standard be regarded as a fight against corruption. I have been in government and when I was chairman of Warri South-West Local Government, I wagged an anti-corruption war without attacking anybody. I worked on those areas that would facilitate corruption, and that was how I was able to handle it.
