A member of the House of Representatives for Yagba Federal Constituency, Hon Leke Abejide, on Wednesday described President Bola Tinubu as the messiah Nigeria needs.
Abejide, expressed confidence in Tinubu’s administration to turn around the nation’s fortunes.
“By the time we get to 2026, they will see this country, and everybody will be praising the President. He is the messiah that Nigeria needs now and he can fix Nigeria,” the lawmaker said.
The lawmaker knocked the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari for handling the nation’s economy he said was in shambles.
He said everything went down completely, faulting the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) under Godwin Emefiele for minting excess currency.
Abejide, an African Democratic Congress (ADC) member, is confident that Tinubu will take the country out of the quagmire.
“At the twilight of the last administration, even for you to get N1,000 in your pocket, was it easy? You know how much was printed by the CBN. How can the economy survive like that? Who will take you seriously?
“Things are getting better. This exchange rate issue will be fixed with time. It is better we go to reality than hiding,” he added.
